The High Court dismissed the judicial review because the Industrial Court’s factual findings — that the Applicant created non‑existing posts and appointed a senior manager and seven clerks without Board approval in breach of DAL, and that the Board did not condone such acts — were supported by evidence and not perverse or irrational; the dismissal was a proportionate exercise of managerial prerogative given the seriousness of the misconduct and estimated financial impact.

The tribunal acted within its statutory discretion under section 16U by deferring decision on legal representation and adopting a fair 'wait and see' approach; the written sale and upgrading agreements, read together, required kitchen wall tiling to 5' and thus the award for missing tiles was correct; the tribunal's finding that sales representations and internal documents established the expected utility room area was supported by evidence, so there was no illegality or irrationality warranting certiorari, and the judicial review application was dismissed.
