The Court held the Resolution was not in breach of the Memorandum or Articles: Article 3 and Article 5 vested admissions and criteria-setting powers in the Board and Articles 39 and 40 conferred broad management powers allowing the Board to receive complaints, re-examine and, where appropriate, reverse prior admission decisions; Paragraph 4(b)(iv) and Article 9 (expulsion) did not apply; the Memo did not modify Article 5 or trigger the special resolution requirement; natural justice arguments premised on those provisions therefore failed; accordingly the Originating Summons was dismissed.
