Petition of Blue Circle Industries Plc for Judicial Review: OHCS 20 Sep 2001

Judicial Review was sought of a decision of a Reporter determining the Petitioners’ planning appeal, to refuse to sist a planning appeal. The local plan was going to appeal, and the reporter wanted to await the outcome. The court did not find any procedural unfairness or impropriety warranting the interference of the Court; or any material misdirection in law on the part of the Reporter; or that the refusal constituted a decision which was unreasonable in the Wednesbury sense.
