The court found no injustice in making the Order 22 r.23 orders. It held that the defendants were entitled to have the provisional costs order replaced by an absolute costs order, that the defendants' costs should be assessed on the indemnity (彌償) basis, that proven disbursements attract enhanced interest and that the appropriate enhanced rate in this case is judgment rate plus 4%, with interest to run from the respective payment dates; the plaintiff must pay the defendants' costs of the application and, if amounts cannot be agreed, the court will assess them.
