Costs were to be allowed on an indemnity basis but reduced where specific items or hours were clearly excessive or unreasonably incurred; applying a broad‑brush summary assessment the court fixed the solicitor hourly rate at HK$2,800 and the legal executive at HK$1,000, disallowed or reduced excessive time entries across Parts B–F and assessed the 2nd Defendant's recoverable costs at HK$171,892.
