The Court granted leave to appeal to the Court of Final Appeal because the interpretation and operation of s30A raise questions of general importance: whether orders under s30A(3) must be made before expiry or can be made after and relate back, and whether interim suspension orders can be made before merits are adjudicated; the Court also held that the slip rule can be used to rectify written orders to reflect what the court actually ordered and that these questions warrant determination by the Court of Final Appeal.
