 A mandatory order may be made in conjunction with a quashing order, for example, where a local authority's decision is quashed because the decision was made outside its powers, the court may simultaneously order the local authority to remake the decision within the scope of its powers.A declaration is a judgment by the Administrative Court which clarifies the respective rights and obligations of the parties to the proceedings, without actually making any order.Unlike the remedies of quashing, prohibiting and mandatory order the court is not telling the parties to do
anything in a declaratory judgment.
