The legal challenge to the Haringey Development Vehicle (“HDV”) has comprehensively failed. At a rolled-up judicial review hearing Ouseley J refused permission on all grounds.
The purpose of the HDV was to create a partnership between the Council and a private sector body. Following an EU compliant procurement process this was Lendlease. The objective was to bring private sector finance, experience and expertise to the task of developing the Council’s land for its better use, and so achieving the Council’s strategic aims in housing, affordable housing and employment.
The Claimant challenged a decision made by the Council through its Cabinet, on 20 July 2017, to confirm Lendlease as the successful bidder to become the Council’s partner in the HDV. Cabinet also approved the structure of the HDV.
The grounds of challenge were that the Council (1) could not use a Limited Liability Partnership for these purposes since the Council was acting for a commercial purpose under s1 Localism Act 2011, and so had to use a limited company; (2) had failed in its statutory duty of consultation under s3 Local Government Act 1999; (3) had failed in its public sector equality duty under s149 Equality Act 2010; and (4) could take this decision only in Full Council and not by Cabinet alone, by virtue of the Local Authorities (Functions and Responsibilities) (England) Regulations 2000.Read More

Read MoreChristopher Knight in Successful Uber Judicial Review
The Administrative Court has quashed a policy implemented by Knowsley Metropolitan Borough Council in which applicants for private hire vehicle driver licences were required to declare that they would drive their vehicles predominantly within the Knowsley area. Under the licensing scheme for private hire vehicles (minicabs) set out in the Local Government (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1976, so long as the vehicle, the driver and the operator through which the minicab is booked are licensed by the same authority, there is no legal requirement that journeys only take place within the licensed area.Read More
The Supreme Court has handed down judgment in Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust v Haywood [2018] UKSC 22. John Cavanagh KC and Holly Stout appeared for the Trust.
The three judges in the majority (Lady Hale, Lord Wilson and Lady Black) took the view that a notice of termination of employment sent by post only takes effect when the notice has come to the attention of the employee and she has had a reasonable opportunity of reading it. Accordingly, the Trust’s notice in this case only took effect when Mrs Haywood returned from holiday and thus the 12 weeks’ notice period expired after her 50th birthday so that Mrs Haywood was entitled to a full early retirement pension.
