KEY LEGAL IDEAS (exam notes) - Audi alteram partem: a person affected by an adverse decision should ordinarily get notice and a fair chance to reply. The exact form depends on the statute and the decision. - Nemo judex in causa sua: a decision-maker must not have a disqualifying interest or bias. - Reasoned decisions: reasons help the affected person and the reviewing court; the duty depends on the governing law. - Delegation: the legislature may delegate details, but not its essential legislative function. - Review standards: Wednesbury unreasonableness and proportionality are applied in different settings. - Ridge v. Baldwin and the GCHQ case are English decisions. They are persuasive in India, not binding.
