Obtaining evidence by interception devices - General provisions
312O: Privileged evidence
You could also call this:
“This rule used to protect certain information from being used in court, but it no longer applies.”
This section of the law, called ‘Privileged evidence’, used to be part of the Crimes Act 1961. However, it no longer exists. The government removed it on 18 April 2012. This change was made because of another law called the Search and Surveillance Act 2012. If you want to know more about why this change happened, you might need to look at that other law.
