(b) the failure is, or would be, an offence against this Act; the Supreme Court may, on the application of the regulator or any other aggrieved person, grant an injunction requiring the person to do the thing. (3) The power of the Supreme Court to grant an injunction may be exercised— (a) whether or not it appears to the court that the person intends to engage, or to continue to engage, in conduct of that kind; and (b) whether or not the person has previously engaged in conduct of that kind.
