UK government: Education Secretary found to have acted illegally in not consulting child safety bodies before scrapping 65 recognised safeguards for children.
In attempting to push through new laws to try and scrap 'costly' safeguards, the appeal court has ruled they acted unlawfully.
Parliament didn't get the chance to debate the changes.
In response to the judgement a Department for Education spokesman said:

We took swift action to bring about temporary changes during a national crisis. All of which have now expired.[/quote]
