REASONS FOR JUDGMENT 1 I refer to my reasons for judgment in Whittaker v Child Support Registrar (No. 3) [2009] FCA386. 2 An application has now been made to widen the scope of the leave to appeal application presently before the Court to include a challenge to the primary judge's finding that leave to replead paragraph 32 of the Amended Statement of Claim should be refused. 3 For the reasons which I have previously advanced, in rejecting the application to widen the scope of the leave application to include challenges in respect of the refusal of leave to replead paragraphs 24 and 25, the application in respect of paragraph 32 of the Amended Statement of Claim should also be dismissed. 4 It may be noted, as recorded at [11] of the primary judge's reasons for judgment of 4 March 2009 that the applicants did not themselves press paragraph 32 of the Amended Statement of Claim. 5 I note that the applicants' claim of alleged error in respect of the repleading of paragraphs 33 and 34 of the Amended Statement of Claim was not pressed. I certify that the preceding five (5) numbered paragraphs are a true copy of the Reasons for Judgment herein of the Honourable Justice Graham.
