Ridge v Baldwin [1964] AC 40 was a UK labour law case heard by the House of Lords.[1] The decision extended the doctrine of natural justice (procedural fairness in judicial hearings) into the realm of administrative decision making. As a result, the case has been described as "the landmark case" that opened up decisions taken by the UK executive to judicial review in English law.[2]
