Knuller v DPP [1973] AC 435

Question 1

What offence was upheld in Knuller v DPP [1973]?

11:19 ✓✓

A Conspiracy to commit public nuisance, based on publishing obscene material online.

B Conspiracy to corrupt public morals, despite changes in societal attitudes toward homosexuality. ✓

C Conspiracy to incite racial hatred under the Public Order Act 1986.

11:19 ✓✓

✅ Correct!
Knuller v DPP [1973] upheld a conviction for conspiracy to corrupt public morals related to homosexual contact via magazine ads. The House of Lords refused to overrule precedent, citing parliamentary responsibility for moral reform. The decision highlighted judicial restraint in criminal law.

11:19 ✓✓

Rule of Law

Question 2

According to A.V. Dicey, which of the following is a core element of the rule of law?

11:19 ✓✓

A Government officials are above the law when acting in national interest.

B No one is above the law, and all must be subject to ordinary legal accountability. ✓

C The rule of law means that laws must always promote social justice and equality.

11:19 ✓✓

✅ Correct!
Dicey emphasized legal equality and accountability (*Introduction*). Option A violates the principle; option C reflects substantive rule of law (Bingham), not Dicey’s formal view.

11:19 ✓✓

Interests of Justice Test

Question 3

How does the interests of justice test reflect tensions between efficiency and fairness in criminal justice?

11:19 ✓✓

A It prioritises cost-saving by limiting legal aid to only the most serious cases.

B It allows resource constraints to override fundamental fairness in marginal cases.

C It requires courts to weigh individual rights against systemic efficiency and public confidence. ✓

11:19 ✓✓

✅ Correct!
The test balances fairness (e.g. vulnerable defendants) with public interest (e.g. resource use), as seen in LASPO reforms. Option A oversimplifies; option B frames it negatively without acknowledging legal safeguards.

11:19 ✓✓
