  • Save Guana Cay Ree Association Ltd and Others V the Queen and Others
    [2009] UKPC 44 Privy Council Appeal No 0013 of 2009 JUDGMENT Save Guana Cay Reef Association Ltd and others v The Queen and others From the Court of Appeal, Bahamas before Lord Hope Lord Scott Lord Rodger Lord Walker Lord Collins JUDGMENT DELIVERED ON 17 November 2009 Heard on 7, 8, and 9 July 2009 Page 1 Appellant Respondent Ruth Jordan (Instructed by Simons James Dingemans QC Muirhead & Burton) Tom Poole (Instructed by Charles Russell LLP) Hugh Small QC Robert Adam (Instructed by Latham & Watkins) Page 2 LORD WALKER Introduction 1. This appeal is concerned with an attempt to halt a large-scale development of the north-west part of Great Guana Cay (“the Cay”), an island north of Great Abaco on the northern edge of the Bahamas archipelago. In the course of the litigation some additional issues, including an issue as to apparent judicial bias, have arisen. 2. The Bahamas are known throughout the world for their natural beauty. It is also well known that their rich natural resources, and especially their coral reefs, are at risk from indiscriminate development. There is an admirable explanation of the background to this appeal in the judgment of the Rt Honourable Dame Joan Sawyer, the President of the Court of Appeal, which I gratefully adopt (paras 11 to 13): “The Bahamas is a country of 701 islands, cays and reefs which stretches in an arc from approximately 58 miles southeast of the east coast of Florida in the United States of America to just north of Hispaniola. It is separated from Florida by the Gulf Stream and from the Greater Antilles by the Old Bahama Channel.
