COMMERCIAL
Appeal issuedCase summary:(1) Was the Court of Appeal wrong to distinguish between a “half secret’” and a “fully secret” commission for the purpose of determining whether the commission should be treated as a bribe that attracts restitutionary liability for the amount of the bribe? (2) Alternatively, if “half secret” commissions are to be treated distinctly from “fully secret” commissions, was the Court of Appeal wrong to apply a test of dishonesty at all and, in any event, a test which is inconsistent with the decision in Hurstanger and which required more than that the commission-payer knew of the existence of a fiduciary relationship?
