Judgement for the case Fayed (Mohamed Al) and ors v United Kingdom

Table Of Contents

  • Fayed (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
