Conclusion
The requirement in section 2 HRA that the court must take into account judgments relevant to the proceedings before it is eminently sensible. It would be bizarre for a court to take into account any factor that is irrelevant to the proceedings in question–equally it would seem irresponsible for a court not to take into account a judgment that was relevant to the proceedings before it.
