Leave to re-amend was granted because the plaintiff had already pleaded 'money had and received', the proposed amendment was a necessary and proportionate response to the joint expert report establishing lack of capacity, the plaintiff could pursue restitution without relying on illegality so a blanket bar would be overkill, delay was not sufficiently prejudicial to justify refusal, and issues of illegality should be resolved at trial; costs were apportioned with a specific award for the hearing.
