The Court held that the pleadings, read as a whole, disclosed reasonable causes of action: claims under s8 of the Protection of Investors Ordinance and for negligent misstatement/professional negligence were sufficiently pleaded against the relevant defendants (notably 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 7th); the 5th defendant's action was improperly struck out below and was restored to proceed on grounds of s8 and breach of trust; strike out was inappropriate given the pleaded facts and the stage of proceedings.
