I move amendment No. 399:

In page 87, between lines 17 and 18, to insert the following:“Appeals

109. An appeal lies—

(a) to the High Court from a decision of the Circuit Court exercising any jurisdiction under this Act, and

(b) to the—

(i) Court of Appeal from a decision of the High Court, or

(ii) to the Supreme Court from the High Court in the circumstances laid down in Article 34.5.4 of the Constitution,

on a point of law only.”.

Amendment No. 399 is technical in nature and provides for appeals to the Court of Appeal on a point of law. The Court of Appeal had not been established when the Bill was originally published. We are simply taking account of the establishment of the Court of Appeal.
