“The approach to judicial review of unappealable decisions of the Upper Tribunal in Scotland should be to align itself with what had been decided by the Supreme Court to be the approach to be taken in England and Wales. Accordingly, as in England and Wales, the same criteria which had to be satisfied when making a second-tier appeal to the Court of Appeal applied when deciding whether a refusal of permission by the Upper Tribunal to appeal to itself was open to judicial review in Scotland.”

“High Court proceedings for declarations as to whether a product incorporated technical information, thus ultimately resulting in the determination of whether royalties were due, fell within the definition of ‘intellectual property litigation’ in regulation 3 of the Chartered Institute of Patent Agents Higher Courts Qualification Regulations 2007 and therefore a patent attorney litigator was an ‘authorised person’ entitled to conduct the litigation and to exercise rights of audience in relation thereto.”

“Senior civil servants who tried to keep their salaries secret will be made to reveal them, the Information Commissioner has ruled. The government has been ordered to name every civil servant on a salary above £150,000 – more than the prime minister – after some resisted, citing the Data Protection Act. The ruling means that the identity of 24 Whitehall mandarins who refused to be named when the coalition published a list of high earners in government a year ago will now be revealed, and that pressure will mount for other high earners below the £150,000 mark to also be named.”
