Proceeding contribution from Lord Hunt of Kings Heath (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 10 February 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Marine and Coastal Access Bill [HL].
Marine and Coastal Access Bill [HL]
I am sorry to keep intervening, but this is a very important point. I realise that a person or organisation would have to think very carefully about taking judicial review proceedings, but my experience of government and working with agencies is that the possibility of judicial review proceedings imposes a very powerful discipline on the way in which they behave, and I would have thought that it would be very much one of the safeguards against the ill-judged use of the relevant consideration clause.
