Does judicial review strike the right balance between citizen and government, as the Independent Review of Administrative Law seeks to discover?

‘It would be naïve to ignore the reality that the question comes with a heavily loaded political agenda,’ Michael Zander QC, NLJ columnist, writes this week.

Zander presents highlights from the 19-page submission to the review of the authors of De Smith’s Judicial Review (see attached pdf).

Submissions closed last week and the review panel are expected to produce their report by the end of the year.
