Their Lordships will humbly Her Majesty that this appeal ought to be dismissed. Despite Mr Connell's and Mr Stuart's attractive and tenacious arguments their Lordships find themselves in full agreement with the trial judge and the Court of Appeal for the reasons which they gave. Their Lordships can add nothing of value to those judgments and do not propose in the circumstances to do more than associate themselves with that reasoning and with the outcome of those judgments. The Appellant must pay the Respondent's costs of this appeal.
