Paragraph 22 Admissibility of evidence

Subject to paragraphs (2) and (3), the Registration Appeal Committee may admit any evidence they consider fair and relevant to the case before them, whether or not such evidence would be admissible in a court of law.

Where evidence would not be admissible in criminal proceedings in England and Wales, the Committee shall not admit such evidence unless, on the advice of the legal adviser, they are satisfied that their duty of making due inquiry into the case before them makes its admission desirable.

Evidence which has not been disclosed in accordance with rule 31 shall be admitted only with the permission of the Registration Appeals Committee given at the hearing.
