1. The controversy which divides the parties to this originating summons concerns the sale and purchase of a flat in Sing Woo Crescent, the Plaintiff being the purchaser and the defendant the vendor. In the absence in this jurisdiction of provisions on the lines of section 49 of the United Kingdom Law of Property Act 1925 allowing a "vendor and purchaser summons", in all the circumstances proceedings by way of originating summons seem to me to be both sensible and convenient.
