- Court of Appeal
Security for costs was ordered but reduced to balance the public interest and appellant's impecuniosity: $6,600 for the Trust and $2,000 each for the Minister and the Council (total $10,600) payable to the Registrar within 20 working days. The appeal raises arguable public law issues so full dispersion of security was inappropriate; respondents failed to establish grounds for increased security under the relevant authorities (Reekie; Houghton v Saunders).
