Thomas Reid had parts of his evidence excluded in the High Court on 12 April 2021, in his Intel planning challenge.

Mr Justice Humphreys struck out several paragraphs from affidavits and refused permission to file one particular affidavit.

The judgment said applicants generally must raise issues with decision-makers before seeking judicial review, subject to exceptions involving EU environmental law.

The court also stressed that any grounds must be properly pleaded, and the ruling did not permit otherwise inadmissible new evidence.
