The Court allowed the Secretary for Justice to join as an intervener limited to the constitutional challenge to section 181 SFO and made directions for filing and inspection, finding the public interest and SJ's legitimate role outweighed delay and prejudice. The Court refused the SFC's application for retrospective leave to provide court documents to the DoJ, concluding it was not appropriate to regularise the prior disclosure despite it being inadvertent; instead SFC was ordered to pay the applicants' costs in relation to that application.
