“In determining whether it would be unduly harsh to expect an asylum seeker to relocate to a safe haven in another part of his country, there was no requirement that the starting point of the assessment had to be consideration of conditions prevailing in the area from where the claimant had fled. It was for the decision maker to determine what weight was to be given to that, and all other relevant factors, in the context of the particular facts of the case.”

Sumukan Ltd v Commonwealth Secretariat (No 2) [2007] EWCA Civ 1148
“Where a contract contained a clause expressly providing for arbitration before a tribunal established according to the defendant’s rules, and one of the arbitrators was not validly appointed under those rules, the non-compliance rendered that arbitrator’s participation unlawful and the award a nullity.

“A claim by the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry to disqualify a director of a company, on the ground that it was expedient in the public interest, had to be brought, rather that started, within two years.

R (O’Connell) v Parole Board and another [2007] EWHC 2591 (Admin)
“A decision by the Parole Board as to whether to direct the release on licence of a prisoner serving an extended sentence under s 227 of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 who had not yet finished the custodial part of the imposed term, engaged the right not to be arbitrarily detained under art 5(4) of the European Convention on Human Rights. However, art 5(4) did not require an oral hearing in every case where the question was the assessment of risk to the public, and whether or not an oral hearing was necessary would depend upon the facts.”
