Campbell -v- Vannet; 1997
Regina -v- Chief Constable of Sussex Ex Parte International Trader's Ferry Ltd [1997] EWCA Civ 861; [1998] QB 477
A restriction placed by a chief constable on the police support he would make available to support a lawful trade was reasonable, even though it might amount to trade interference. The allocation of resources available to the Chief Constable was for him and the course he took was well within his margin of appreciation, not least because of the need to balance serious competing claims. It was unreal and unfair to treat the Chief Constable as having all the resources of the State available to him before he could justify what he had done.
