The Statement of Claim was struck out because the pleaded causes are public law challenges that should have been brought by judicial review (leave/time requirements not met), the Railways Ordinance provides the statutory objection and compensation regime pre-empting private law relief, and on the pleaded facts there is no reasonably arguable cause of action so the proceedings are an abuse of process.
