1. This is a Summons under O.18, r.19 to strike out the Statement of Claim. In reality, it is an application either for me to determine a preliminary point of law pursuant to O.14A, or pursuant to O.33, r.(3) and (4) that the issue of limitation which has been raised is heard as a preliminary issue. The parties have helpfully agreed that whatever approach is used, I should determine this point initially.
