The Court struck out Comvita New Zealand Ltd because the Amended Statement of Claim failed to plead sufficient primary facts to establish that Comvita UK acted as agent of Comvita NZ; the agency allegation was conclusory and therefore no tenable cause of action against Comvita NZ was disclosed. The strike-out was ordered on the ground of no reasonable cause of action.
