Abstract
This article will consider the engagement of the United Kingdom Supreme Court in determining the application of Article 9(1) European Convention of Human Rights (ECHR) freedom of conscience in two leading case decisions: Lee v Ashers Baking Company Ltd 20182 and Greater Glasgow Health Board v Doogan 2014. 3 Lady Hale’s lead opinions in these cases will be analysed. This will demonstrate important developments in both equality law and freedom of conscience. In particular, through this examination it will be shown that freedom of conscience under Article 9(1) European Convention of Human Rights has been strengthened.
