s 68A Manner of giving voluminous or complex evidence
68A.—(1) Evidence may be given in the form of charts, summaries or other explanatory material, in electronic or other medium, if it appears to the court that —(a) the materials would be likely to aid the court’s comprehension of other evidence which is relevant and admissible according to the provisions of this Act or any other written law; and (b) the evidence that is to be given by any party is so voluminous or complex that the court considers it convenient to assess the evidence by reference to such materials. [4/2012] (2) Any fact or opinion asserted in any material referred to in subsection (1) must be proved by relevant and admissible evidence, and if such fact or opinion is one that is admissible only on the proof of some other fact or opinion, such last mentioned fact or opinion must be proved before evidence is given of the fact or opinion firstmentioned, unless the party undertakes to give proof of such fact or opinion and the court is satisfied with such undertaking. (3) In any proceedings where any material referred to in subsection (1) is adduced in evidence, the court may —(a) direct the party to provide such material in electronic or other medium; (b) require the provision of such material or copy thereof, including the identity and address of the person who prepared the material, to the other parties; and (c) specify a period within which such material or copy thereof must be provided to all parties to the proceedings.
