The parties and counsel are to be commended on agreeing on the contents of the Agreed Statement of Fac
ts with the savings in Court time and legal costs for the parties which results. But, amongst the drawbacks in parties and counsel adopting an Agreed Statement of Facts approach, is that they can effectively become the sole arbiters of relevance without a
d
ditional matters of relevance arising from the calling of evidence becoming part of the case.  Further, Judges are the final decision-makers on matters of relevance and, as the process of agreeing on Agreed Statements of Facts does not include the Judge, 
the Judge\rquote s own insights relating to the case cannot be incorporated.

In this case, once submissions are received and the approaches of the parties become more readily apparent than is discernible from the Amended Petition and the Notice(s) of Oppositio

 in election matters, and a candidate is respon
sible generally, you may say, for the deeds of those who to his knowledge for the purpose of promoting his election canvass and do such other acts as may tend to promote his election, provided the candidate or his authorised agents have reasonable knowled
