As regards appeals against decisions of the Circuit Court and High Court in specific cases, subsection (11) provides for the possibility of appeal on a point of law "by leave of the Court" to the High Court or Court of Appeal, respectively. This is a standard provision in legislation of this kind and it will ensure that a further appeal on the merits of the case does not take place. For this reason, I cannot accept amendment No. 193.
