  1. MR JUSTICE OUSELEY: I am going to grant you the extension sought. It seems to me that there is a proper basis set out in the material for granting that extension. I understand the concerns expressed by White and Case.

  2. Of course, there is a problem in expressing any extension to be final and I do not do so. It is not for me to fetter the decision of any subsequent judge as to whether any further extension, if sought, should be granted in the circumstances which may apply. It is not always beneficial for final decisions to be forced for want of an extension of time, particularly if consideration given to points in greater depth might actually result in a favourable decision to the person whose extradition is sought.

  3. For present purposes I would grant the extension.
