LAWS314 : Evidence Notes.docx
Document Summary
Most of the classic rules of evidence are specifically worded to only apply in certain circumstances. This is defined in s4 and it is unlikely to involve a tribunal. Points: within the evidence act there is no obvious attempt to govern a tribunal. Although there is no attempt to govern tribunals there are provisions in the evidence act that do not have this specific focus on proceedings . However, it is still unclear or unlikely that it will extend to tribunals this is because everyone knows that tribunals are left to their own. See the outline page 1 for the sections of strange acts i. e. in the children"s and young persons and their families. Act 1989 there is a section for evidence (s195). Because of the situation in these cases the evidence rules may not be applied, it may include evidence that is otherwise admissible.
