F wanted to take over a company and a parliamentary commission undertook a public report into his conduct which X had attacked. The report was bad for F who argued that its contents breached article 6 – Right to a fair trial and to be heard before a tribunal. European Court of Human Rights said that article 6 was only engaged where there was a dispute decisively determining F’s civil rights or obligations. Clearly that wasn’t the case here so article 6 wasn’t engaged. Here, the parliamentary committee was carrying out an investigatory function.
