105H Leave to cross-examine witness
(1) The defendant cannot cross-examine a witness at a preliminary examination unless:
(a) the defendant applies under section 105G or 105J(9)(b) for leave to cross-examine; and

(2) If the prosecutor consents to leave being granted, the Justice must grant leave unless satisfied it would not be in the interests of justice to do so.

(ii) has provided a reason why the evidence of the witness is relevant to that issue; and
(b) cross-examination of the witness on that issue is justified having regard to the matters mentioned in subsections (4) and (5).

(b) the issues are adequately defined; and

(b) any relevant condition or characteristic of the witness, including age, culture, personality, education and level of understanding; and

(h) the weight of the proposed evidence of the witness; and
(i) any statements of other witnesses that contradict the proposed evidence of the witness.

(7) If a witness does not attend a preliminary examination when required to do so:

(b) the witness' handed-up witness statement is then inadmissible as evidence in the preliminary examination.
(1) A handed-up witness statement must be admitted at the preliminary examination as the evidence-in-chief of the witness as if the witness had appeared before the Justice and given evidence orally.

(a) the witness must attend at the time and place fixed for the giving of evidence by the witness; and
(b) the defendant may apply for leave to cross-examine the witness.
105K Cross-examination of witness
(1) If leave to cross-examine a listed witness is granted, the evidence-in-chief of the witness at the preliminary examination must be confined to the witness:
(a) identifying himself or herself; and
(b) attesting to the truthfulness of his or her handed-up witness statement.
(2) Subsection (1) does not apply to a witness if leave is granted under section 105J(6) or (7) for the witness.
(3) A defendant who is granted leave to cross-examine a witness is not limited to cross-examining the witness on the issue for which leave was granted.
(4) However, the Justice may disallow any question asked during the cross-examination if it appears to the Justice that:

(i) identified an issue to which the question relates; and
(ii) provided a reason why the evidence of the witness is relevant to that issue; or
(b) the question is not justified having regard to the matters mentioned in section 105H(4) and (5).
