United Kingdom Renderers Association Ltd and Another v Secretary of State for the Environment Transport and Regions: CA 23 May 2002

The respondent issued a guidance note as to the practice of rendering. The applicants sought a review of the notice. The notice imposed a boundary outside of which rendering smells should not be apparent. The statute required guidance to bear in mind the need to balance best practice and excess cost. It was suggested that the secretary had not included the requirement to limit excess cost.
Held: The guidance did not state under which provision each recommendation was made, and it was consistent with the statute
