Delay was a little in excess of a month and excusable due to legal aid processes and statutory stay; leave to appeal out of time was granted limited to grounds 1, 2 and 6 because those grounds raised a reasonable prospect of success on whether the non-alienation provision in Cap 99 makes the government a secured creditor and whether such security can be surrendered or waived; other grounds lacked reasonable prospect and were refused.
