- CACV208/2015
The application for leave to appeal was dismissed because the applicants failed to succinctly frame a question of great general or public importance under s.22(1)(b) CFAO, the questions they later formulated were academic given the court's assumption in their favour regarding past surplus and the respondents' reliance on future projections, and the Court will not interfere where the decision-maker properly considered past and future financial information and no public law vice was shown.
