Proceeding contribution from Baroness Butler-Sloss (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 22 March 2010. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Norwich and Norfolk (Structural Changes) Order 2010.
Norwich and Norfolk (Structural Changes) Order 2010
Since the Minister has raised the question of what might happen between a judge and Parliament, I shall ask a question. If the House passes the orders and the judge says that the applicants for judicial review are successful, that will set the orders aside, will it not? Then you will be within a few days of the non-existent local government elections. It is nothing to do with what the judge says, but any litigants—even the Government—need to listen if they are given advice that the real prospect is that they will not succeed.
