Bias and Procedural Fairness in Municipal Decision-Making: A Discussion on Kiann v HRM
Recording
Description
How can courts determine whether an administrative decision-maker has displayed bias in rendering a decision? In the recent case of Kiann v HRM, 2024 NSSC 305, the Nova Scotia Supreme Court weighed in on this question, finding that two HRM councillors displayed a reasonable apprehension of bias that warranted the Court’s intervention on judicial review. In this virtual session, hear from counsel for both Kiann Management Limited and HRM on the issue of bias and procedural fairness in municipal decision-making.
