P. '" O. Property Ltd. v. ADea (LA.T.)
fetter in any way the discretion of those who may have to exercise it, we
only suggest that the procedural history here might be thought to provide
powerful grounds for an exercise sympathetic to the position in which,
through no apparent fault of theirs, the applicants now find themselves.
If we are correct in our conclusion that P. & O. cannot be the right
respondent, there is no point in sending the matter back to the industrial
tribunal. We thus allow the appeal and declare that the complaint is not
to proceed further against P. & O.
