- High Court
Although the appellant succeeded, the Court exercised its discretion under the High Court Rules to limit the costs award to 50% of the amount claimed because the appeal raised matters of public interest and the Court's general guidance more closely reflected the Authority's position, making a reduced costs award appropriate.
