Opening heading
Added the following - Crown Prosecution Service v Cornish Stannary Parliament [2002] - A Public Interest Immunity Certificate was presented to the court by the Crown Prosecution Service after about ten minutes of this hearing. A possible reason for the PII was that the Duchy of Cornwall refuses to reveal the circumstances under which it transferred several of its properties (including Tintagel Castle) to the care of English Heritage. see - On the Road to Justice for the Cornish
Examples
I'm not sure how useful the examples section is. Why are these examples chosen? If they stand for points of law, shouldn't the article focus on those points? ElectricLemon (talk) 15:42, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Public Interest Immunity → Public interest immunity –
Per WP:MOSCAPS ("Wikipedia avoids unnecessary capitalization") and WP:TITLE, this is a generic, common term, not a propriety or commercial term, so the article title should be downcased. In addition, WP:MOSCAPS says that a compound item should not be upper-cased just because it is abbreviated with caps. Lowercase will match the formatting of related article titles. A quick google search shows that lower case is commonly used. Tony (talk) 07:22, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
- Support alternate move to Public-interest immunity per WP:MOSCAPS and WP:HYPHEN. --Pnm (talk) 04:04, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
- OK, I'll go along with this, since it's English in origin, even though some American writers wouldn't use the hyphen themselves. I'd also be ok with unhyphenated if anyone objected. Tony (talk) 12:15, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
- While you'll see American newspapers following the same guidelines as WP:HYPHEN – the New York Times is very consistent about it, for example – most Americans don't follow it in common usage. It's worth following Wikipedia MOS nevertheless. The point of having a manual of style is consistency, which requires applying the style guidelines. Editors create wikilinks using article titles, so if articles aren't titled according to the MOS, we end up with noncompliant prose too. --Pnm (talk) 22:24, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

- Support Public-interest immunity. Black's Law Dictionary, which is American, hyphenates "public-interest" when it's used as an adjective. Good Ol’factory (talk) 02:22, 24 November 2011 (UTC)
