- CTEA3/2020
The application to compel the respondents to make general discovery was refused because the Commission had not followed the required procedure (no summons in Form 2 under Rule 8) and had failed to identify or justify the documents or categories sought; discovery, if pursued, must be sought by proper application and confined to specific categories justified as necessary and proportionate given the Commission's investigatory powers.
