Section 15YN — Crimes Act 1914: Admissibility of evidence given using video or audio recordings of interviews

(1) The admissibility of the evidence given by video or audio recording is not affected by the fact that it is evidence of previous representations that the person made in the interview that was being recorded. (2) Evidence given by video or audio recording under section 15YM is not admissible if the court is satisfied that: (a) any defendant in the proceeding (other than the person if the person is a defendant); or (b) the defendant’s lawyer (if any); was not given a reasonable opportunity to view or listen to the recording. (3) The court may refuse to admit the whole or part of the contents of a recording adduced as evidence under section 15YM.
