SUPPLEMENTARY JUDGMENT OF FINNIGAN J

I delivered my judgment in this matter today. Unfortunately I had not realized that the agreement between Counsel as to quantum was an agreement for judgment by consent. I had read Counsel’s submissions about this and now formally enter judgment in terms of Counsel’s submission.

In respect of quantum I make the following orders by consent:

1. Judgment is entered for the Plaintiff in the sum of $F6602.80;
2. Judgment is entered for the Plaintiff in the sum of $AU16,446.02;
3. Interest will be payable by the Defendant on those sums at the rate of 13.5% per annum simple from issue of the writ (2 February 1999) until the date of judgment;
4. The Defendant will pay costs on a solicitor/client indemnity basis $F20092.16.
