The Court was asked whether a court should, exceptionally, exercise its inherent jurisdiction (invoked as a vehicle for the balancing of rival human rights claims) to make an order restricting the reporting of a criminal trial. In the event of an order being made, the further question arises as to how far should such injunction extend, and (in this essentially changing situation) in what circumstances a change in the situation may justify a different outcome.
