Update: 2024-10-28
Description
Rosalind English talks to Tim Lankester, who was Permanent Secretary of this country’s foreign aid department when a huge scandal broke about the grant of aid to Malaysia in the 1990s. The Court’s ruling that this decision was unlawful marked a shift in the balance between the judiciary and the executive. Sir Tim and Rosalind are joined by law Professor Liz Fisher to discuss the role of the courts in government decision making over the past thirty years.
