Determination of national security
[edit]Under Significance, the article states: 'The case also shows that national security remains a political issue and not a legal one; it is not to be determined by a court.' This could be read as contradicting the earlier statement, under Judgment: House of Lords, that 'while the courts would not by default accept the government's argument that the matter was one of national security, it was a "matter of evidence" and the evidence provided in this case showed that the government was correct.' It seems that the court is willing to determine whether or not national security is at issue, but is not willing to determine the appropriateness of (ministerial) action if so?
