Introduction
[1] By two separate applications, the applicants seek leave to apply for judicial

Northern Ireland Court and Tribunal Service (‘NICTS’). Given that the applications
raise identical issues, it is convenient to deal with both of them in a single judgment.
We have considered the written material and oral submissions made by both
applicants, to include additional material filed after the hearing which was to
facilitate the applicants in responding to the court’s questions and, in particular, the
case of Re McDonagh’s Application which we address infra.
