lord bingham of cornhill my lords, 1. these three appeals, arising on somewhat differing facts, present a common question. the appellants are former or serving prisoners. the question is whether the early release provisions to which each of the appellants respectively was subject discriminated against him, unjustifiably, in breach of article 14, in conjunction with article 5, of the european convention on human rights. sean clift 2. the first-named appellant (sean clift) is a british national. on 30 april 1994 he was sentenced at lincoln to 18 years' imprisonment for very serious crimes including attempted murder, which carried a maximum sentence of life imprisonment. under the legislative regime applicable to his case he became eligible for release on parole on 13 march 2002 and entitled to release on 18 march 2005. on 25 march 2002 the parole board recommended his release on parole but the secretary of state rejected that recommendation on 25 october 2002. the parole board reconsidered the case and on 17 march 2003 did not recommend release, but on 25 february 2004 it again did so. on this occasion the secretary of state accepted the recommendation, and on 10 march 2004 mr clift was released on licence. 3. had mr clift been sentenced to a term of less than 15 years, or had he been sentenced to life imprisonment, the secretary of state would have been legally obliged to comply with the recommendation of the parole board. that is the effect of sections 33(2) and (5), 34, 35 .....

lord bingham of cornhill my lords, 1. the issue in this appeal concerns the assessment of damages for loss of charter hire recoverable by a shipowner where a charterer repudiates a time charter of a vessel during its currency and he accepts that repudiation, there being an available market in which the shipowner can, at or shortly after the date of acceptance of repudiation, charter out the vessel for the balance of the charter term. the dispute between the parties turns on the date at which the quantification of damages is to be made. the shipowners contend that the quantification should be made when, the repudiation having been made and accepted, they charter out (or may reasonably be expected to charter out) the vessel. events occurring later, not affecting the value of the contractual right which the owner has lost at that time, are irrelevant. the charterers contend that the quantification should be made as of the date on which the damages actually fall to be assessed, taking account of any event which has by then occurred which affects the value of what the owners lost as a result of his repudiation. the maritime arbitrator who was the original decision-maker in this case (mr robert gaisford) would have preferred to accept the owners' contention, but felt constrained by first instance authority to accept the charterers'. his decision was upheld by langley j in the commercial court ([2005] ewhc 161 (comm), [2005] 1 all er (comm) 467) and by auld and tuckey ljj and lord .....
