The High Court upheld the District Court strike out because the new evidence (notably the audit report) criticised AWINZ's governance but did not establish operative fraud or perjury sufficient to vitiate Judge Joyce's defamation judgment; the material lacked the particularity and cogency required to found a prima facie fraud case and would not have changed the outcome, so the strike out was correctly exercised.
