Christian J Howells

Practice Overview

Christian J Howells specialises in public and constitutional law. He was appointed to the Attorney General's A Panel of Regional Counsel in 2020 and the Welsh Government's A Panel of Counsel in 2021. Since then, an increasing focus of his work has been representing Government in complex and highly significant cases before the higher courts or in public inquiries.

Christian has appeared in important cases in the immigration field, including: (i) an appeal before the Master of the Rolls where the Court was successfully persuaded to hold that the historic injustice caused to Gurkhas by the denial of their settlement rights was a decisive factor in the proportionality balancing exercise when considering their human right to a family life in the UK, thereby changing the law to benefit hundreds of adult dependent children of Gurkhas ([2013] 1 WLR 2546); and (ii) an appeal before the Supreme Court where the Court was successfully persuaded that the Court of Appeal was wrong in its interpretation of legislation codifying human rights considerations in deportation cases, thereby strengthening the rights of the child under those provisions ([2018] 1 WLR 527). He successfully represented the claimant in a complex judicial review of a decision to close 21 libraries by a council in financial trouble ([2018] ACD 123).

Christian has developed a niche practice in environmental law in Wales, having represented the Welsh Government in the Court of Appeal in an environmental permitting appeal and in the High Court in R (Coal Action Network) v Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council and the Welsh Ministers which concerned a challenge to the Welsh Ministers’ reserve powers of enforcement in relation to Ffos-y-fran opencast mine. He advised on a change of use application which engaged the Welsh Government's moratorium on new carbon-based power stations.  He represented the claimant in an environmental law challenge to the decision to build a new hospital on wild meadows, and successfully obtained an Aarhus cost order on behalf of a single claimant in a representative capacity.

His constitutional law cases include representing the Counsel General for Wales in a Supreme Court reference of the UNCRC Incorporation (Scotland) Bill and a judicial review of the Internal Market Act 2020 challenging the legality of the implied effect on devolved competence.  He acted pro bono on behalf of Women's Equality Network Wales in relation to proposed Senedd legislation on election candidate lists introducing a minimum requirement for female representation (his advice was published and submitted to a special purpose Senedd Committee).

He is a leading practitioner in social care law and has appeared in all reported cases under the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014, including challenges on behalf of young adults concerning their placements (successfully establishing contempt against a local authority for breaching a mandatory order), the duties to looked-after children, children’s continuing healthcare and challenges to the functions of regional safeguarding boards.  His health work includes challenges to hospital reorganisation and air ambulance reorganisation.

He is very experienced in complex inquests and inquiries and is currently instructed as leading junior for the families in the inquest into the Gleision mining disaster and represented victims in the Infected Blood Inquiry and the Welsh Ministers in the Covid-19 Public Inquiry.

He is consistently recognised in both the Legal 500 and Chambers and Partners as a leading junior in administrative law, inquests and inquiries.  He has extensive experience in the higher courts, including the Administrative Court, Court of Appeal and Supreme Court. He is instructed on behalf of individuals, governments and local authorities.

Due to his inquiry experience, he was recently invited to join a Bar Council Law Reform Committee to respond to the House of Lords Inquiry into Statutory Inquiries.  He also sits on the Bar Council Legal Services Committee and the Inner Temple Bar Liaison Committee as the Wales representative.
