Question
R v Somerset County Council ex p Fewings [1995] 1 WLR 1037
Answer
Facts: Under the Local Government Act 1972 s 120(1)(b), local councils were tasked with managing their land for “the benefit, improvement or development of their area.” Somerset County Council bought a strip of land and banned stag hunting on it, which effectively prevented all hunts. It became apparent that their main reason for banning the hunts was ethical opposition to the practice. The question was whether or not this fell within the terms of their powers under the legislation, or whether morality was an irrelevant factor.
