The Literal Rule
This rule says that words should be given their plain
ordinary, everyday grammatical meaning
Whiteley v ChappelCheeseman v DPP
R v Bentham
![Page 6: Law presentation: Summarry of Stat. Int](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062405/55748f7dd8b42a7f348b4f43/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The Golden Rule
This rule is usually used when a word has 2 or more
meanings and judges take the least absurd meaning to create a better result
R v SigsworthAdler v George
R v Allen

The Mischief Rule
This is the rule known as the rule in ‘Heydon’s Case’,
where judges can look beyond a word of an Act to
find Parliament’s intention
DPP v BullSmith v Hughes
Royal College of Nursing v DHSS

The Purposive Approach
This rule allows a judge to add or ignore words in an Act to help them give a
decision that supports, in their view why the Act was created
R v Registrar General ex parte SmithR v Morris
