The claimant, suffereing a severe medical condition, sought an order requiring the defendant to include as part of her healthcare package, the provision of a suitably adapted accomodation.
Held: The claim failed. It would require special circumstances to support a finding that a clinical commissioning group had acted unlawfully or irrationally in deciding that the accommodation needs of an individual could and should be met through other avenues involving means-tested state provision, and not out of its own NHS budget.
