R (Justice for Health) v SoS for Health [2016] EWHC 2338 (Admin) The row over junior doctors' contracts has spilled over to the courts as the campaign group Justice for Health took on the Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt in a judicial review. There were three main grounds for review: Jeremy Hunt does not have the power to impose the new contract The policy was not announced in a clear manner The contract is irrational The campaign group failed on all three grounds as the court said that the new contract was not being directly imposed; the policy was eventually announced in a clear and coherent fashion; and the overall decision did not satisfy the Wednesbury test for unreasonableness. We then look at what legal possibilities still exist for junior doctors who oppose the new contract.
