Parker LJ said of the plaintiff’s application for a review of the decision on her homelessness application: ‘She is entitled to protection with regard to her public law right to have the necessary inquiries made and the decision properly made . . the injustice to the applicant, if she is not housed but is right, is clearly immense . . This is no more than interim protection for as long as it takes to decide the substantive matter . .’
An interim injunction might be discharged where the plaintiff cannot make out the strong prima facie case that is required, where the potential balance of injustice favours not granting an injunction, and where the public interest likewise lies in not granting an injunction.
