Court of Appeal, sitting as a single judge nominated by the President of the Court: (a) affirms that the question before the court was not one that was appropriate to refer to a panel of three judges; and (b) dismisses an appeal from the High Court, and affirms an order under the 'slip rule' correcting a clerical error in an earlier judicial review order, which had incorrectly listed parties not involved in the substantive proceedings. The Court of Appeal found the grounds of appeal to be misconceived, affirming that the High Court's correction did not alter the substance of the original order or affect the appellant's rights in the ongoing appeal.
