This is excellent news. For those of you unaware, the Scottish Government legislated that there had to be equal number of men and women on boards. Of course, they defined women as including men, so For Women Scotland applied for, and have been granted, a judicial review.

Thanks for the link.

As a background explanation great, but ... I cant see mention of a judicial review.

Could just be me lacking concentration Blush

Which paragraph is it in?

Thanks
