Prior to the hearing before me, Mr Asombang made a late application to adjourn. I refused that application for the reasons which were set out in an order of 9 October. Mr Asombang renewed his application on the morning of the hearing. I considered that there were no new circumstances and so refused the application but said that I would revisit the position if I considered that he was encountering any difficulties during the course of the hearing. In the event, he made cogent and succinct submissions, and I did not take the view that he was prejudiced by the refusal of either application to adjourn, both in any event being made at an extremely late stage.
