- HCAL108/2010
The Court varied the order nisi: it accepted the Council's submission that Dr Z's judicial review against the Council was premature because there was no extant Council decision to challenge and therefore Dr Z must pay the Council's costs; it accepted the EAC was entitled to separate representation and to its costs because it is a distinct statutory sub‑committee whose decisions and jurisdictional issues were separately litigated, and therefore the applicants must pay the EAC's costs; the Council remains liable for half the costs of Drs X and Y as previously ordered.
