Regulation 22 Child witnesses
No child shall give evidence in person unless—
the President has given the parties an opportunity to make written representations; and
having regard to all the available evidence, and the need to safeguard the welfare of the child, he believes the Tribunal will be unable to determine the case fairly unless the child gives evidence in person.
If he directs that a child shall give evidence in person, the President—
shall secure that any arrangements he considers appropriate (such as the use of a video link) are made to safeguard the welfare of the child; and
shall appoint for the purpose of the hearing a person with appropriate skills or experience in facilitating the giving of evidence by children.
The President shall pay such fees as he may determine to any person appointed under this regulation.
