The Court held that, applying s69 of the Evidence Act and Port Nelson, the majority of the documents in Part 3 (tax invoices, credit notes, buyer-created invoices and related costings) are commercially sensitive costings whose disclosure would likely prejudice the defendant; accordingly inspection is permitted only on the terms of the confidentiality undertaking (with modifications rejecting any assertion of property in information), except for two pricing lists (documents 251 and 252) which are public and not subject to special protection.
