1. As to the first ground on which leave to appeal to the Court of Final Appeal is sought, the proposed question of law is in effect whether the principles governing applications for striking out and dismissal for want of prosecution have been put in doubt by the Court of Appeal and therefore need restatment by the Court of Final Appeal. We are not persuaded that such a situation has arisen in the present case.
Outcome: Leave to appeal refused.
