Costs in judicial reviews have historically adopted the traditional mechanism whereby the loser pays the winner's costs. Under the 'Aarhus Costs Rules' costs capping in judicial review was originally limited to environmental claims and in February 2017 was extended to cover some planning cases. The rules currently cap a claimant's costs liability at £5,000 (£10,000 when the claimant is a business) and a defendant's at £35,000. It is for the claimant to decide whether to invoke the Aarhus rules in these cases and in order to do so they must submit a statement of means detailing any financial support provided to them by others.
For I would like to see a Judicial Review on the DEFRA lead shot proposals that the environmental impact on manufacturing steel shot has not been taken account of (which impact both locally and globally must now must be taken into account - see the recent Scottish oil fields cases). Nor if course on the issue of non-toxic .22 R/F, 9mm R/F and .410 non-toxic. The first two don't exist and the last UK makers have said cannot be loaded with steel shot.
