Does anyone know when to expect the decision in [https://www.supremecourt.uk/cases/uksc-2024-0039](https://www.supremecourt.uk/cases/uksc-2024-0039) ? (Lewis-Ranwell vs G4S and others). At the end of the hearing in July last year, they said the decision (on the ‘difficult and important issue’) would come ‘probably next term’.
