Rule 709(4) should be applied flexibly to serve the interests of justice; the Court will permit amendments that are relevant and necessary to resolve genuine errors in the impugned decisions and decline irrelevant or non‑justiciable additions or those properly pursued in another forum. Applying that test the Court granted leave in part (permitting specified amendments dealing with delay and the reasonableness of costs) and struck out unrelated supplementary purported appeals to the High Court concerning annual practising certificates which are appealable only to the District Court.
