Petitioner in person.
Nemo for Respondent.
Date of hearing: 25th February, 1986.
The petitioner seeks review of our judgment, dated 29‑2‑1984 whereby his petition for leave to appeal was disposed of.
His sole contention is that as he was already in service before 29‑4‑1977 and had been validly appointed a civil servant by letter, dated 2‑7‑1977, he did not fall in the category of employees whose case was to be referred to Public Service Commission. For this, he relies on the definition of "employee" in clause (f) and of "Council" in clause (d) of section 2 of Ordinance XIV of 1981.
The submission of the petitioner, who earlier also personally argued his case, finds mention in paras. 14 to 16 of the judgment, and all aspects of his contention are dealt with therein. What the petitioner is now seeking amounts to a rehearing de novo of his entire case on the same grounds. Such is not the scope and purpose of a review. The petition has no merit and is dismissed.
M . Y . H . Petition dismissed.
