Wednesday 1 May 2024
Before Lord Justice Bean
Lord Justice Males
Lord Justice Dingemans
By Appellant’s Notice filed on the 30 January 2023, this is an appeal against the order of Upper Tribunal Judge O’Connor, sitting as a Deputy Judge of the High Court, sitting in the Administrative Court
The Appellant sought to judicially review the Respondent’s decision of 28 February 2022 to withdraw its funding of his bed and breakfast accommodation.
Permission to apply for judicial review was granted on the papers. Following a substantive hearing UTJ O’Conner concluded that the decision was not unlawful, that it was not inconsistent with the evidence, and that the Respondent’s decision to withdraw funding was not significantly influenced by the Respondent’s lodging of a discrimination claim against the respondent.
