The smell hits the back of your throat and brings tears to the eyes
Frank Morgan: 'We were having a barbecue recently and suddenly the smell came and we all had to rush indoors'
Curb on "prohibitively expensive" litigation costs must await Jackson review, appeal judge says
The United Kingdom may be "vulnerable" to European Commission action to control the cost of environmental litigation, the Court of Appeal has warned.
The Aarhus Convention, signed by the UK, states that costs in environmental cases should not be "prohibitively expensive".
This principle has formed part of European directives applying to public law cases. In Morgan and Baker v Hinton Organics (Wessex) [2009] EWCA Civ 107, Lord Justice Carnwath said the Aarhus Convention could also apply to private nuisance actions.
