This part of the law used to be about what happens when a jury goes away to think about their decision in a trial. However, this section doesn’t exist anymore. It was taken out of the law on 29 June 2009. This change only affects trials where a jury is chosen on or after that date. The law that removed this section is called the Juries Amendment Act 2008.
