The court refused the plaintiff's application to restore the stayed proceedings because the matters raise substantial and arguable public law issues that risk duplication and injustice if individual non-trial applications proceed; proper case management under Cap 336H requires staying and coordinating the cases (including exploring judicial review, representative test cases, consolidation or disposal on legal points) to secure a just resolution of disputes in accordance with parties' substantive rights, particularly given the vulnerability of many defendants.
