I look forward to the explanations, which will be extremely helpful. My brief comment is in similar form to my comment on the previous clause. I simply point out that clause 3(a) says that he
“dishonestly fails to disclose to another person the information which he is under a legal duty to disclose”
and not information that he is expected to disclose. That has relevance when we come to consider the next clause.
