    Leave to adduce valuation expert evidence by a surveyor is refused because readily available, up-to-date property data from reputable websites and Land Registry transaction records provide sufficient factual evidence to assess reasonable costs of suitable alternative accommodation in this personal injury case; public housing accessibility and allocation are factual matters for HKHA and not for a surveyor; rehabilitation experts adequately address home modification needs; valuation opinion is unnecessary, disproportionate and not of sufficient probative value for the interlocutory issue.
