Supreme Court, following a declaration of miscarriage of justice, determines that the successful applicant was entitled to his costs on a 'party and party' basis, and that there was no basis to award an extraordinary award on a 'solicitor and client' basis, where there had been no finding of negligent or dishonest conduct on the part of any State part or witness.
Ruling on costs: Supplemental judgment - certification of miscarriage of justice - whether to award 'solicitor and client' costs rather than 'party and party costs.
