Abstract
This article analyses the Court of Appeal decision in R (on the application of Rogers) v Swindon NHS PCT and Secretary of State for Health. It argues that the decision demonstrates that the courts are prepared to intervene to ensure that decision-making on allocation of healthcare resources is transparent, and thus publicly acceptable.
