Case Summary: The Data Retention and Investigatory Powers Act 2014 (DRIPA) was tested for validity under articles 7 and 8 of the ECHR. The High Court ruled that the law violated the ECHR and struck it down because: (1) it did not provide clear and precise rules on access to and use of retained communications data; and (2) access to data lacked judicial or independent administrative oversight.

Case Significance: The decision establishes a binding or persuasive precedent within its jurisdiction.
