The Supreme Court granted leave to appeal limited to two questions—whether a local authority owes a duty of care to the recipient of a LIM under s 44A and, if so, whether the claimant suffered recoverable loss—while refusing leave on proposed grounds concerning whether the information was given in terms of s 44A and whether s 41 applied because those grounds lacked realistic prospects of success based on the Court of Appeal's reasoning.
