520			_aQBD 11 March 1987. In this action, estate agents (A) sued a firm of property developers (D) for commission claimed to be due on a sale to the United Arab Emirates of a property which (D) had renovated and refurbished. The rules of law applicable to the facts are as follows. An agreement to pay commission on business introduced does not include an introduction antecedent to the agreement in the absence of an express provision to that effect. An estate agent does not have implied authority to appoint a subagent. An "introduction" means directing the attention of a person who hitherto has not applied his mind in that direction to the fact that a property is for sale. QBD held, that the plaintiffs were entitled to the commission agreed (to be shared on a 50-50 basis with the subagents).
