FAMILY LAW RULES 20042003 No. 375 - RULE 15.04

Family reports in certain consent cases

If the court orders a family report to be prepared for subparagraph 65G (2) (a) (ii) of the Act, the report writer must:
(a) investigate whether a person to whom paragraph 65G (1) (b) of the Act applies has been convicted of:

(i)
an offence under the Act; or
(ii)
any other offence relevant to the welfare of a child; and
(b)
include details of any such convictions in the report.

Note
The filing of an affidavit does not make it become evidence. It is only when the affidavit is relied upon by a party at a hearing or trial that it becomes, for that hearing or trial (subject to any rulings on admissibility), part of the evidence.
