Article 35 Restricted reporting orders

If it appears appropriate to do so a restricted reporting order may be made by a convener or a Tribunal at a hearing.

A restricted reporting order is an order limiting or prohibiting the publishing of any matter specified in the order, which may include matter likely to lead members of the public to identify the appellant or any specified child or other person, where it is considered that they should not be identified.

In this rule “publishing” includes, without prejudice to the generality of that expression–

An order under this rule may be made in respect of a limited period and may be varied or revoked by a convener or a Tribunal before or at the hearing.
