The court granted the applicant's variation application and set aside the 50% split of the duplicated costs because, in the factual context of an aided plaintiff facing likely Fund Board relief and an insolvent employer, maintaining the split would create a real risk that the plaintiff's damages would be substantially diminished by the Director's common fund charge; this risk could be avoided and employer prejudice prevented by removing the split while imposing safeguards to prevent duplication of recovery.
