R (on the application of XH and another) v Secretary of State for the Home Department [2016] EWHC 1898 (Admin), [2016] All ER (D) 166 (Jul)

Its reasons included that it was not to be implied that Parliament had intended to abrogate the Royal Prerogative power in relation to terrorism-related activities when it had enacted the Terrorism Prevention and Investigation Measures Act 2011.
