  • R v Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, ex p Rees-Mogg was an English legal case in which Times journalist and life peer William Rees-Mogg, challenged the legality of the Maastricht Treaty by judicial review. The case was based on Rees-Mogg's call for a declaration that by ratifying the Treaty on the EU, the Government transferred certain prerogative powers without statutory authority.
