Leave to defend is granted because the applicant has established a triable issue regarding the amount of unremitted contributions due, as partial payments are not expressly disputed by the respondents. The suit was properly instituted under summary procedure since unremitted NSSF contributions are debts due to the Government. The applicant's alleged counterclaim is not a valid ground for leave as it does not directly relate to the unremitted contributions in issue.
