...© Andrew Le Sueur 2004, a.lesueur@bham.ac.uk The rise and ruin of unreasonableness? Andrew Le Sueur Barber Professor of Jurisprudence, The University of Birmingham 1. Introduction Lest we forget what was actually said in 1948, Lord Greene stated:[1] It is true to say that, if a decision on a competent matter is so unreasonable that no reasonable authority could ever have come to it, then the courts can interfere. That, I think, is quite right; but to prove a case of that kind would require something overwhelming … It is not what the court considers unreasonable, a different thing altogether. If it is what the court considers unreasonable, the court may very well have different views to that of a local authority on matters of high public policy of this kind. Some courts might think that no children ought to be admitted on Sundays at all, some courts might think the reverse, and all over the country I have no doubt on a thing of that sort honest and sincere people hold different views. The effect of the legislation is not to set up the court as an arbiter of the correctness of one view over another. It is the local authority that are set in that position and, provided they act, as they have acted, within the four corners of their jurisdiction, this court, in my opinion, cannot interfere. Put like this, unreasonableness as a ground of review is a straightforward concept, based on sound constitutional principles and a useful longstop...

...The World Bank was created at the 1944 Bretton Woods Conference, along with three other institutions, including the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The World Bank and the IMF are both based in Washington DC, and work closely with each other. Although many countries were represented at the Bretton Woods Conference, the United States and United Kingdom were the most powerful in attendance and dominated the negotiations.[7]:52-54 Traditionally, the World Bank has been headed by a citizen of the United States, while the IMF has been led by a European citizen. 1944–1968 Before 1968, the reconstruction and development loans provided by the World Bank were relatively small. The Bank's staff was aware of the need to instill confidence in the bank. Fiscal conservatism ruled, and loan applications had to meet strict criteria.[7]:56-60 The first country to receive a World Bank loan was France. The Bank's president at the time, John McCloy, chose France over two other applicans, Poland and Chile. The loan was for US$250 million, half the amount requested, and it came with strict conditions. France had to agree to produce a balanced budget and give priority of debt repayment to the World Bank over other governments. World Bank staff closely monitored the use of the funds to ensure that the French government met the conditions. In addition, before the loan was approved, the United States State Department told the French government that its members associated with the Communist Party would...

...1. Introduction: “Administrative and judicial remedies” is a legal concept with immense practical importance in the ABS negotiations. The existence of effective legal remedies in the user country is the primary means by which all ABS parties (especially source countries and other providers) obtain certainty about their rights and how they will be protected and applied. The CBD’s provisions and the ABS regime negotiations have created certain concepts (new sovereign legal rights) and all CBD parties have committed to adopt legislative and administrative measures to recognise and apply those concepts. Legal remedies are the tools for ensuring that these commitments and their underlying objectives are achieved in practice. The proper relationship between the judiciary and the quasi judicial administrative agency is a topic of continuing controversy in administrative law. One of the most significant and puzzling problems which has arisen in this area is the timing of judicial intervention in the administrative process-at what point and to what extent may the court give relief to a party aggrieved by administrative action. Universally applied, the doctrine of exhaustion of administrative remedies precludes an applicant from challenging the validity of administrative actions prior to seeking relief via prescribed administrative procedures. The law of ‘remedies’ is not usually sectorally specialised. In nearly all countries, “administrative and judicial remedies” are provided in...

...1. INTRODUCTION In the past, the Government easily violated human rights. There were no stringent mechanisms to control decisions and actions of the government, as a result of this, abuse of power and violation of human rights occurred regularly. The courts were also reluctant to review these powers because, they were restricted by rules, for example there was a rule that judicial control does not extend to government’s policy decisions, another rule was that a reviewing court may not substitute it’s opinion for that of the administrative body, unless the official has acted mala fide or in bad faith. This is supported by case of Shidiack v Union Government , where it was held that, if the administrative organ has duly and honestly applied himself to the question which has been left to his discretion, it is impossible for the court of law either to make him change his mind or to substitute it’s conclusion for his own. It is true that for any government to function effectively, it must be bestowed with discretionary powers, discretionary powers involves the exercise of a choice between two or more options on the part of the decision maker. The exercise of these discretionary powers must be checked and controlled by other branches of government, but this was not the case in South Africa. In the past the only manner in which those powers could be controlled was common law basis, but as a result of a narrowly defined grounds of judicial review of government action...

...Introduction “Trial by jury is… the lamp that shows that freedom lives” and that “each jury is a little parliament”. - Patrick (later Lord) Devlin. Jury system has survived in our country for almost 10 centuries. The core values, representativeness, resides in the ability made available for ordinary citizens to plays an important participatory role in the criminal process. It is generally accepted that the jury of ’12 good men and true’ lies at the heart of the British legal system. However, the misconduct in jury has become a vital issue as people starting to lose confidence with it. The importance of jury system Redmayne, a professor of law, said that it is arguably that twelve randomly selected individuals produce a broader range of experience and expertise than one single judge. Based on this, it is also arguable that jury trial will produce a fairer outcome than single judge as people cannot completely sure that judges will treat every single cases at a completely fair manner. ‘Fairness’ is what all the people demand, which is why we have jury trial and which survive for such a long time, but the precondition of jury trial is that it must provide an impartial trial. Jury trial holds public confidence as people assume that jury trial will bring a fair procedures and will produce fair outcomes. ‘Trust in the jury’ is very important as it is the strongest support that keep the jury system works and which is secured by the fact that it applies...
