    Compulsory seen question for Administrative Law Examination: May

    2006

    Section A: Compulsory seen question to be answered by ALL


    candidates

    (1) Why did the House of Lords decide to grant a declaration of


    incompatibility in the case of the Belmarsh detainees (A v Secretary of State
    Home Office [2004] UKHL 56)?

    In preparing the answer to this question students should first concentrate on the lead judgment of Lord
    Bingham which sets out the facts of the case and provides an overview of the reasoning. It will also be
    useful to look at other judgments. For example, Lord Hoffman took a different line from the other judges.

    There are number of references to the judgment in academic journals.. For example, see A Tomkins
    ‘Readings of A v Secretary of State for the Home Department’ [2005] Public Law 259.

    There is also a discussion of the case in the terrorism context in a chapter of a book on terrorism due out
    later this year which has been placed on this website:

    P. Leyland ‘Combating Terrorism and the Protection of Individual Rights in the UK: achieving a balance
    between legislative provision, executive power and judicial oversight’, 1996.
