Schedule 8Urgent cases: reference to the court etc
I1I23Reference to court
1
Immediately after serving the Part 2 notice, the Secretary of State must refer to the court the imposition of the measures on the individual.
2
The function of the court on the reference is to consider whether the relevant decisions of the Secretary of State were obviously flawed.
3
The court’s consideration of the reference must begin within the period of 7 days beginning with the day on which the Part 2 notice is served on the individual.
4
The court may consider the reference—
a
in the absence of the individual,
b
without the individual having been notified of the reference, and
c
without the individual having been given an opportunity (if the individual was aware of the reference) of making any representations to the court.
5
But that does not limit the matters about which rules of court may be made.
