Regulation 10 Documents to be supplied to accused
Where an accused is charged with a disciplinary offence by being served with a copy of the discipline form, the independent solicitor shall arrange for the accused to be supplied, as soon as possible, with a copy of—
any statement he may have made under regulation 4;
the report, allegation or complaint on which the charge is founded (or so much thereof as relates to the accused) and any reports thereon (other than the report of the investigating officer), notwithstanding that they may be confidential;
any statement relating to the charge made by any witness who may be called in support of the charge, together with the name and address of each such witness;
any statement relating to the charge made by any person, other than a witness to be called in support of the charge, to the investigating officer or to anyone on his behalf, together with the name and address of each such person; and
an inventory of any relevant documentary evidence and productions.
Where the charge is founded on a report, allegation or complaint and a statement arising therefrom made by the same person, the reference in paragraph (1)(b) to the report, allegation or complaint shall, without prejudice to paragraph (1)(c) or (d), be construed as including a reference to that statement.
Notwithstanding anything in paragraph (1)(b), the independent solicitor may withhold from the accused a report upon the report, allegation or complaint on which the charge is founded, if he is satisfied that considerations of national security require that it should not be supplied.
In this regulation, any reference to a copy of a statement, report, allegation or complaint shall, where it was not made in writing, be construed as a reference to a copy of a record thereof.
