Leave to appeal was refused because the SFC's expanded interpretation of 'by using' to include withholding/non-disclosure was not raised before the Tribunal and lacked the factual foundation required for adjudication, the issues were not of great general or public importance given the peculiar facts, and the Tribunal's factual finding that the respondents did not act to 'use' the information was affirmed; consequently the application for leave failed and costs were ordered against the SFC.
