Leave to adduce further evidence was refused because no special reasons were shown: the appellant had prior opportunity to obtain independent assessment, nothing in the proposed evidence undermined the existing specialist assessor's opinion, future opportunities for review exist, and the proposed statutory-interpretation evidence would not assist the appellate re-hearing and is a judicial function rather than proper expert evidence.
