CRIMES LEGISLATION AMENDMENT ACT 2003 - SCHEDULE 1

SCHEDULE 1 – Amendment of Bail Act 1978 No 161

(Section 3)

Section 32 Criteria to be considered in bail applications

Insert "and, in that regard, is not bound by the principles or rules of law governing the admission of evidence" after "circumstances" in section 32 (3).

Note: This Schedule amends section 32 of the Bail Act 1978 so as to make it clear that the principles and rules of law governing the admission of evidence do not apply to matters taken into consideration under that section for the purpose of making a determination as to the grant of bail. This will also make it clear that section 4 (1) (a) of the Evidence Act 1995 does not operate in relation to the making of such a determination.
