Re Good Law Project Ltd v Minister for the Cabinet Office [2021] EWHC 1083 (TCC), [2021] All ER (D) 24 (May)
The claimant company not-for-profit organisation successfully applied for a cost capping order, pursuant to s 88 of the Criminal Justice and Courts Act 2015 in proceedings concerning a challenge by the defendant Cabinet Office, by way of judicial review, to the court’s decision that the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care had acted unlawfully by failing to comply with procurement law and policy in relation to the publication of contracts for goods and services awarded following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic (see [2021] All ER (D) 27 (Mar)). The Technology and Construction Court held that, among other things, there was a matter of general public importance raised by the proceedings for the purposes of s 88(7)(a) of the Criminal Justice and Courts Act 2015 Act, and therefore the proceedings constituted public interest proceedings for the purposes of s 88(6)(a) of the Act.
