- HCMP667/2007
Leave to appeal was granted conditionally because there is at least a arguable point whether the Secretary has a right of appeal and whether the costs order, though within the Council's statutory power, should be subject to appellate review in light of competing principles; leave is granted only on condition that the appellant provides a full indemnity to the respondent nurse to prevent oppressive hardship and because the judge viewed the appeal as without merit but justified for clarification of principle.
