- Court of Final Appeal

- FAMV6/1999
Leave to appeal was granted because the issue of whether the respondent is a principal contractor under s.24(1) is reasonably arguable on the contractual documents and raises a question of general/public importance; the interlocutory appeal should therefore proceed to the Court of Final Appeal to avoid defeating substantive justice.
