When you are in a court case under the Public Safety (Public Protection Orders) Act 2014, the court can use any information it thinks is relevant as evidence. This means the court can consider statements, documents, or other matters, even if they would not normally be allowed in court. The court's decision is guided by subpart 8 of Part 2 of the Evidence Act 2006 and rules about legal professional privilege.

You should know that legal professional privilege is a rule that protects conversations between lawyers and their clients. The court must follow this rule when deciding what evidence to use. The court's main goal is to consider all relevant information when making a decision in a case under this Act.
