Would somebody given notice that leave to seek judicial review of their decision has been sought weigh it up in their minds and consider that, at the leave to appeal stage, they might win and then have to go into the full judicial review process and defeat the leave to appeal? I am probably not using the right terminology but would they make a judgment call on it? That could stretch out for weeks. We could end up with the judicial leave process being extended by having this in place.
