The Tribunal lawfully exercised its wide discretion under s51 by treating ‘costs to follow the event’ as a prima facie starting point while considering relevant factors (merits, conduct, repetitiveness, litigant in person status); it did not commit public law errors or act Wednesbury unreasonably, and the judge correctly refused leave to judicially review the Costs Decision, so the appeal is dismissed.
