Where a party failed to comply with an order under Ord.25 r.6 to state whether it would defend and how it proposed to be represented shortly before a fixed trial, the court properly exercised its discretion under Ord.25 r.6(3)(b) to strike out the Defence to prevent prejudice and unnecessary expense to the plaintiff and to enable the trial to proceed efficiently; failure to participate justified debarment in the circumstances.
