Leave to appeal was granted because the question of whether a union may issue a s 42 notice to initiate bargaining for a subsequent party raises a question of law of general or public importance and is not rendered moot by the respondent's sale of its business; the matter has ongoing effect for unions and employers and was rightly characterized as novel and important by the Employment Court.
