The court held that the police lawfully required applicant's consent to fingerprinting as a precondition to process a sex offence conviction record check under the scheme; the Police Force Ordinance s59 regime for identifying particulars does not apply to the voluntary vetting scheme; refusal to proceed when the applicant declined fingerprinting did not breach public law principles; the refusal of leave was correctly made and the appeal is dismissed.
