The Court allowed the applicants' document inspection claim on a 3C basis due to problematic piecemeal disclosure, awarded the claimed disbursements, granted a 33% uplift under r 14.6(3) because the litigation combined matters of general constitutional importance with a heightened vulnerability of applicants arising from the red zone, granted a stay of payment subject to the award being paid into the applicants' solicitors' trust account pending appeal, and denied reclassification of Fowler Developments to category 3, awarding it costs on a 2B basis.
