The High Court granted permission to appeal because there was a reasonable and arguable error in the tribunal's decision to strike out the claimant's claim on the ground that the certification was issued by the US parent company; the correct approach should have been to consider adding the parent as a party or otherwise permit further proceedings rather than striking out the claim outright.
