The court held the expert evidence was admissible because the opinions given by PW46 and PW47 concerned matters within their specialized forensic expertise (composition and likely use of recovered materials); statutory definition of 'explosive substance' did not convert scientific opinion into a question of law, and experts may address ultimate issues when within expertise subject to judicial directions to the jury.
