Mr Justice Bokhary PJ :
1. We grant leave to appeal to the Court of Final Appeal under the “question of great general or public importance” limb of s.22(1)(b) of the Court’s statute, doing so in regard to the first two questions set out in para.10 of the applicant’s Notice of Motion but not in regard to the third question set out in that paragraph. In other words, the leave which we grant is confined to the “reflective loss” and “multiple derivative action” issues.
