Quote of the Month
"Judicial review is generally concerned with the decision making process where the impugned decision is flawed on the ground of procedural impropriety. However, the law has now developed to allow a decision to be challenged on grounds of illegality and irrationality, which then permits the courts to scrutinise the decision not only for the process but also for substance.” Empire Holdings Ltd v Suruhanjaya Sekuriti Malaysia & Ors [2024] 9 MLJ 123 at para 5–6 |
