The SC judgment only determined that the appellant had locus standi to challenge the Work Place Relations Act and Unfair Dismissals Act. Then, last year, the High Court ([2020] IEHC 178) held that, although the powers exercised by adjudication officers and the Labour Court—for resolving employment disputes under the WRC—resemble many of the characteristics of the administration of justice under Article 34, it lacks the crucial element of the decision maker being able to enforce its decisions (characteristic four of Bord na gCon). Thus, the claim failed on that limb. That’s as much as I know!

I just held up the legislation at the start of my exam and also throughout (whenever i remembered to) to show what i was looking at! there's nobody speaking to you so its not invigilated but they use a software that can detect suspicious behaviour, whatever that might be i.e. going to the bathroom often, staring in the same direction repeatedly during the exam. i had been very paranoid about staring out my window thinking that the system might have flagged it, and i was never told it did because nothing of the sort was communicated to me. then again i did fail that paper so who knows lol
