REASONS FOR JUDGMENT

  1. On 27 July 2007 the Court made orders allowing the appeal in this matter.  By way of oversight the Court failed to make an order setting aside the decision of the Tribunal.  This order should have been made to enable the Appeal to be undertaken by the Tribunal according to order 2 made on that day.
