EVIDENCE ACT 2011 - SECT 55

Relevant evidence

    (1)     The evidence that is relevant in a proceeding is evidence that, if it were accepted, could rationally affect (directly or indirectly) the assessment of the probability of the existence of a fact in issue in the proceeding.

    (2)     In particular, evidence is not taken to be irrelevant only because it relates only to—

        (a)     the credibility of a witness; or

        (b)     the admissibility of other evidence; or

        (c)     a failure to present evidence.
