Abstract

Abstract Administrative decisions are unlawful if they are unreasonable, in the sense that Associated Provincial Picture Houses Ltd. v Wednesbury Corporation made famous. What is Wednesbury unreasonableness, precisely? Courts have not clearly said, and existing academic answers are flawed. Here I propose a new answer. My claim, roughly, is that a Wednesbury unreasonable decision is one that a court is entitled, given the evidence before it, to conclude was wrong, given the evidence before the authority when it made the decision. In a slogan: Wednesbury unreasonableness is demonstrable wrongness.

WEDNESBURY无理性

如果行政决定是不合理的，那么行政决定就是不合法的，就像联合省电影公司诉韦斯伯里公司案一样。确切地说，什么是威斯特伯里的不合理?法院没有明确表示，现有的学术答案是有缺陷的。在此，我提出一个新的答案。粗略地说，我的主张是，一个不合理的决定是一个法院有权，根据它面前的证据，得出错误的结论，考虑到当局做出决定时面前的证据。在一个口号中:星期三不合理是显而易见的错误。
