Description

Section 31(4) of the Senior Courts Act 1981 defines the circumstances in which the

court may award damages, restitution or the recovery of a sum due on a claim for

judicial review. When this is viewed alongside Civil Procedure Rules (CPR) 54.3(2), it becomes clear that a claim for damages or restitution may be included in a claim for judicial review, but only in addition to a claim for one of the prerogative remedies or a declaration or injunction; a claimant may not seek damages or restitution alone in a claim for judicial review.

During this session public law practitioner Dean Kingham will examine when it is possible and /or appropriate to attach a claim for damages or restitution onto public law judicial review cases.

Consideration will be given to the grounds for judicial review, statutory principles and recent public law cases in this area.

Viewers will be encouraged to think flexibly on how best to argue for damages in judicial review cases and will receive guidance on how to do this effectively in practice.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
