Criminal Justice and Courts Bill

I speak from memory, so forgive me if I do not have this exactly right. My understanding was that my right hon.

Friend wanted effectively to strike out judicial reviews that were almost procedural, in which the outcome would have been the same whether the organisation had obeyed the rules or not. Could he see procedural issues being an exceptional public interest? I think that they are an important public interest: that we make our agencies and our Governments obey the law. It is after all the point of judicial review.
