REASONS FOR JUDGMENT 1 I would not normally entertain an application for interrogatories at this late stage, but these are proceedings in bankruptcy, and it does seem to me that they have been conducted in a quite singular way on both sides. I am of the view that the conduct of the trial is likely to be very much expedited if the interrogatories are answered. In those circumstances I think that it is probably in the interests of the administration of justice that they be answered.

I certify that the preceding one (1) numbered paragraph is a true copy of the Reasons for Judgment herein of the Honourable Justice Dowsett.
