The court exercised its discretion afresh and, balancing P's partial justification for the change of expert against P's delay and failure to offer clear compensation for wasted costs, refused the 1st Proposed Variation but allowed part of the 2nd Proposed Variation: costs of P's summonses to D1 excluding the Master hearing; if P fails the Condition all costs including Master hearing and appeals to D1 with certificate for 2 counsel; if P meets the Condition there is no order as to costs for the Master hearing and the appeals; no order as to costs for the present variation application.
