Tom Cross has successfully acted for the defendant in R (CU) v Secretary of State for Education [2024] EWHC 638 (Admin).
The main significance of the judgment is its detailed consideration of the question of when time starts to run in a judicial review challenge to a consultation (whether brought under the Gunning principles or otherwise).
In paragraphs 64-86 of the Judgment, His Honour Judge Stephen Davies, sitting as a Judge of the High Court, analyses the case law and discusses in depth the options and risks for claimants.
Tom will discuss the judgment and its implications at an ALBA Seminar on 15 May and the White Paper Judicial Review Conference on 13 June. Tickets remains available for these events from the providers.
