Judicial Review and Courts Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Faulks (Non-affiliated) in the House of Lords on Monday, 21 February 2022. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bills on Judicial Review and Courts Bill.

I thank the noble Lord for giving way. Of course, new subsection (8)(f) refers to

“any other matter that appears to the court to be relevant.”

So a court can decide that there are other matters that it thinks are important. This is not restricting or fettering the discretion of the court. Why is it so offensive?
