REASONS FOR JUDGMENT


1                     There is no reason why costs should not follow the event.  I order that the applicant pay the respondent’s costs of the proceedings.  As to the impecuniosity of the applicant, that is a matter which may or may not be treated as relevant by the Minister in determining whether or not to enforce the order.
