The court refused the Secretary for Justice's application to revoke bail because, although there were initially substantial grounds to believe the respondent might fail to surrender, subsequent and verifiable changes in circumstances (employment, attendance at proceedings and provision of particulars) justified continuing bail subject to stricter conditions; accordingly the magistrate's grant of bail was not set aside but the bail conditions were varied to address the identified risks.
