213: Transitional provision relating to translation and transcripts

You could also call this:

"Notifying about translations and transcripts before new rules start"

Illustration for Evidence Act 2006

If you are a party in a case, you can give notice about translating a document or offering a transcript before some new rules start. You can do this under section 135(1) or 135(3) to make sure you give notice in time before a hearing that will happen after the new rules start. This helps you get everything ready before the hearing.
