Objectors and the development and planning system in the UK.
Evans, D.
Objectors and the development and planning system in the UK. - Wastes Management September 1999, 48-49(2) .
Explains the ways in which decisions on waste or landfill proposals can be challenged by those who object to them. The two methods are by judicial review, which is discretionary, or by statutory challenge, which is not discretionary. In either case the court can only uphold or quash the decision challenged, and cannot substitute another decision. It will also be possible challenge decisions under the Human Rights Act 1998 when it comes into force, but at present it is necessary to petition the European Court to allege a breach of the European Convention on Human Rights.
