Leave to appeal was refused because, on a purposive construction of reg 38E, 'immediate supervision' requires a competent person who is not at the time actively engaged in scaffold erection and is free to supervise the scaffold and scaffolders; the applicants' argument that scaffolders engaged in erection may supervise each other (or that supervision must be one-on-one) was not reasonably arguable.
