26 March 2025| CATEGORIES: judicial review, Private school fees, VAT case| TAGS:
A case challenging the government’s decision to impose VAT on private school fees will take place in the High Court next week. The specific arguments are that the policy contravenes Article 2 of the First Protocol (right to education) of the ECHR, both on its own and when read in conjunction with Article 14 (protection from discrimination).
