The court clarified that the Costs Order was made on the basis of the submissions before it and without invoking or exercising the court's powers under s17 of the Legal Aid Ordinance; the Legal Aid regime had not been raised to the court and therefore the Costs Order cannot be treated as an exercise of s17 powers. The Clarification Summons resulted in no order as to costs.
