Although retrospective leave to disclose documents and have the expert involved was granted in principle, the court excluded the expert report: Dr Wong's 2nd Report was held not sufficiently relevant or helpful, relied on old or unadmitted material and documentary diagnosis without recent examination of the child or mother, and admitting it would risk delay, re‑opening adjudicated issues and undermining the imminent trial and the child's ongoing treatment; accordingly the Expert Summons was dismissed and costs ordered against Father.
