description Examines the Supreme Court decision in R. (on the application of Buckinghamshire CC) v Secretary of State for Transport on whether the process for passing the Bill authorising plans for the high-speed rail network (HS2) would breach Directive 2011/92 (Environmental Impact Assessment Directive) art.1(4) as the Bill would be subject to a whipped rather than a free vote.
