Article 62 Evidence

Where under these Rules evidence may be filed, it shall be by statutory declaration or affidavit.

The registrar may if he thinks fit in any particular case take oral evidence in lieu of or in addition to such evidence and shall allow any witness to be cross-examined on his statutory declaration, affidavit or oral evidence, unless he directs otherwise.

The registrar shall in relation to the examination of witnesses on oath and the discovery and production of documents have all the powers of an official referee of the Supreme Court.

The rules applicable to the attendance of witnesses before such a referee shall apply in relation to the attendance of witnesses in proceedings before the registrar.
