Regina v Paddington South Rent Tribunal ex parte Millard: 1955

Counsel had been appointed for the tribunal to resist an appeal against the order the tribunal had made.
Held: As to costs: ‘It does not matter to the tenant (who is legally aided) whether the costs come out of one fund or another, but so that we should not be making a precedent I do not think we should give costs against the tribunal. We never give costs unless they act improperly.’
