Foster v The Secretary of State for Justice: CA 26 Mar 2015

‘This case concerns the recall to prison of a prisoner released on Home Detention Curfew (HDC) and is based on the contention that the common law duty of fairness requires that the prisoner is provided with the opportunity of an oral hearing to advance submissions as to why he should not have been recalled. ‘
