What is the test for a judicial review of a decision by the College of Registered Nurses?

Nova Scotia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Dicks v. Nova Scotia (Elevators and Lifts), 2015 NSSC 362 (CanLII):

I quote again from the decision of Robichaud v. College of Registered Nurses 2011 NSSC 379 at para. 12: It is not sufficient to be interested in the decision. The party applying for judicial review must have a special, private or sufficient interest in the decision or proceeding. That will be satisfied when that party’s rights or obligations have been, are or will be affected more than the general public.
