10. In Muir v Keay (1975) (A case that supports 'Noscitur a sociis'), what was the principle?
Applying Noscitur a sociis, the court decided the general words, 'other place' had to refer to indoor places since all the words on the list were indoor places so the defendant was not guilty
Applying Noscitur a sociis, it was held that because of the other words, 'resort and refreshment' in the section, that 'entertainment' did not refer exclusively to theatrical entertainment, music and dancing
Therefore, using Noscitur a sociis, rates could not be charged on any mine other than coal mines
