slj,

Thanks for the link on judicial enquiries.

From this I see that a:

"Judicial review allows people with a sufficient interest in a decision or action by a public body to ask a judge to review the lawfulness of:

an enactment; or

a decision, action or failure to act in relation to the exercise of a public function"

So a judge will review the evidence and make a judgement.

The HoL Select Committee, comprising a majority of judges, reviewed the evidence and made a judgement which the MoD reject.

Yes I can now see the clear difference between the two procedures
