Rule Of Law Forum 2022 - Panel Discussion "Democratic scrutiny of emergency measures"

The panel discussion has explored the role of democratic scrutiny during times of emergency, recognising the limits of judicial scrutiny and the need for other effective mechanisms by which to review emergency measures. Informed by the latest caselaw of the Strasbourg Court, the panellists examined the principles of legality, proportionality and the margin of appreciation and discussed how these principles can and should be applied during times of emergency, including the factors which should be taken into account when making a proportionality assessment of an emergency measure. The panel focused on the introduction of ‘lockdown’ measures across Europe, and the relevant ECtHR case law in respect these measures, as an example of the how the principles discussed throughout the session are applied in practice.
