Sunflower Care Services Pty Ltd v Commissioner of the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission (Costs)

The Court held that the Court's emphasis that proffering undertakings equivalent to final relief should not be treated as 'capitulation' attracting adverse costs consequences, as this would undermine the public interest in narrowing issues. The 80% apportionment for the successful applicant reflects the Court's willingness to reduce costs awards where unsuccessful grounds introduced disproportionate complexity relative to their merit.
