[312] In ASIC's appeal in relation to Mr Brown it requests the following orders: that the appeal be allowed with costs; that the orders of the Court of Appeal of the Supreme Court of New South Wales made on 17 December 2010 in relation to Mr Brown be set aside; that in lieu thereof his appeal to that court against the declaration made on 27 August 2009 be dismissed; that he pay one-eighth of ASIC's costs in the Court of Appeal in relation to the resolution approving a draft ASX announcement; and that the balance of Mr Brown's grounds of appeal concerning relief from liability and penalty be remitted to the Court of Appeal for determination. Those orders should be made.

A question could arise as to the admissibility of this conduct, and other conduct, for the desired purposes. Its admissibility depends on whether the conduct is a "previous representation" which "it can reasonably be supposed" that the person who carried out the conduct "intended to assert" within the meaning of s 59(1) and (2A) of the Evidence Act, and, if not, whether the common law as stated by Parke B in Wright v Doe d Tatham (1837) 7 Ad & E 313 at 388 [112 ER 488 at 516] applies. The question was not raised by the parties and need not be discussed.
