The Court held that the recognition decision was procedurally flawed because the Director General of Trade Unions and the Minister failed to consult and afford the long-established Appellant a hearing before granting recognition to TDU; consultation obligations under s12 TUA 1959 bear on the recognition process under s9 IRA 1967 and principles of natural justice and legitimate expectation required prior consultation and a right to be heard; therefore the impugned decisions were void and were quashed by certiorari.
