Norman and Another v Secretary of State for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: Admn 5 Jul 2006

The applicants sought to have quashed an order by the Council confirming a footpath. Having concluded that the decision of an inspector confirming a modification order was flawed, the Court said that it should be quashed and the matter remitted for reconsideration. Leading counsel for the objectors thereupon submitted that the consequence of the decision was that the order was quashed; that there was no order and that the council had to consider whether to start again. Counsel for the Secretary of State did not suggest otherwise.
