R (Cygnet Health Care Ltd) v Care Quality Commission |
| |
|
| Issue: |
Whether the Care Quality Commission had erred in law in concluding that inspection reports and enforcement decisions made in relation to hospitals operated by a particular provider were not affected by apparent bias arising from the fact that the lead inspector had previously been an in-patient and one of their hospitals and had complained about the standard of care he was offered; the impact of not following a policy that required the assignment of an inspector who had been a patient to be assessed by senior management; whether any of the reports or enforcement decisions should be quashed; the impact of delay; costs. |
