Metal Light Fitting with no Earth?

I've bought a new halogen ceiling light fitting which is metal. The fitting does not have an earth connection only the live and neutral to a small connection box (Space for earth but no cable).

Question is do I try and connect the earth cable in my ceiling to the fitting or just leave it dangling?

The fitting sounds like its double insulated, there will be a logo on it with a square inside another one to show this, connect the earth to the terminal supplied.
