Because the third amended statement of claim confines the proceeding to general legal questions about how net proceeds are calculated, the categories of documents sought are not directly relevant and discovery would not be proportionate to the subject matter; furthermore the Secretary has statutory powers under s 333 of the Gambling Act 2003 to obtain information for any subsequent factual inquiry, so the application for particular discovery is dismissed.
