Regulation 38E must be read purposively to secure both the safe condition of scaffolds and the safety of scaffolders; 'immediate supervision' contemplates a competent person who is not actively engaged in the scaffold-erection work and who is free to supervise rather than a situation of workmen supervising each other; the point advanced by applicants was not reasonably arguable and leave to appeal was refused.
