Decision of Bell Ringers Guild and Bishop on bell ringing permission not amenable to judicial review and not within the scope of the Human Rights Act

Re: TH v Chapter of Worcester Cathedral [2016] EWHC 1117 (Admin)

The claimant sought judicial review of decisions to revoke his permission to ring bells at a cathedral and to require him to sign an agreement that placed conditions on him ringing bells in other churches within the dioceses. He argued that the decisions were irrational, unjustified and contrary to ECHR, art 8. Held: The claims were not amenable to judicial review and did not come within the scope of the Human Rights Act.

Sarah Hannett was involved in this case.
