Application of Code
1. This Code of Conduct applies to any expert witness engaged or appointed—
(a) to provide an expert's report for use as evidence in proceedings or proposed proceedings; or
(b) to give opinion evidence in proceedings or proposed proceedings.
General Duties to the Court
2. An expert witness is not an advocate for a party and has a paramount duty, overriding any duty to the party to the proceedings or other person retaining the expert witness, to assist the Court impartially on matters relevant to the area of expertise of the witness.
Content of Report
3. Every report prepared by an expert witness for use in Court shall clearly state the opinion or opinions of the expert and shall state, specify or provide—
(a) the name and address of the expert;
(b) an acknowledgment that the expert has read this code and agrees to be bound by it;
(c) the qualifications of the expert to prepare the report;
(d) the assumptions and material facts on which each opinion expressed in the report is based (a letter of instructions may be annexed);
(e) the reasons for and any literature or other materials utilised in support of each such opinion;
(f) (if applicable) that a particular question, issue or matter falls outside the expert's field of expertise;
(g) any examinations, tests or other investigations on which the expert has relied, identifying the person who carried them out and that person's qualifications;
(h) to the extent to which any opinion which the expert has expressed involves the acceptance of another person's opinion, the identification of that other person and opinion expressed by that other person;
(i) a declaration that the expert has made all the inquiries which the expert believes are desirable and appropriate, (save for any matters identified explicitly in the report) and that no matters of significance which the expert regards as relevant have, to the knowledge of the expert, been withheld from the Court;
(j) any qualification of an opinion expressed in the report without which the report is or may be incomplete or inaccurate;
(k) whether any opinion expressed in the report is not a concluded opinion because of insufficient research or insufficient data or for any other reason; and
(l) where the report is lengthy or complex, a brief summary of the report at the beginning of the report.
Supplementary Report Following Change of Opinion
4. Where an expert witness has provided to a party (or that party's legal representative) a report for use in Court, and the expert thereafter changes his or her opinion on a material matter, the expert shall forthwith provide to the party (or that party's legal representative) a supplementary report which shall state, specify or provide the information referred to in paragraphs (a), (d), (e), (g), (h), (i), (j), (k) and (l) of clause 3 of this code and, if applicable, paragraph (f) of that clause.
5. In any subsequent report (whether prepared in accordance with clause 4 or not) the expert may refer to material contained in the earlier report without repeating it.
Duty to Comply with the Court's Directions
6. If directed to do so by the Court, an expert witness shall—
(a) confer with any other expert witness;
(b) provide the Court with a joint report specifying (as the case requires) matters agreed and matters not agreed and the reasons for the experts not agreeing; and
(c) abide in a timely way by any direction of the Court.
Conference of Experts
7. Each expert witness shall—
(a) exercise his or her independent judgment in relation to every conference in which the expert participates pursuant to a direction of the Court and in relation to each report thereafter provided, and shall not act on any instruction or request to withhold or avoid agreement; and
(b) endeavour to reach agreement with the other expert witness
(or witnesses) on any issue in dispute between them, or failing
agreement, endeavour to identify and clarify the basis of disagreement on the
issues which are in dispute.
Form 44AA inserted by S.R. No. 130/2023 rule 6.
Form 44AA—Court interpreters' Code of Conduct
COURT INTERPRETERS' CODE OF CONDUCT
Application of code
1. This Code of Conduct applies to any person (the interpreter ) who, whether or not for fee or any other reward, is engaged, appointed, volunteers or otherwise becomes involved in a proceeding or proposed proceeding to act as an interpreter by interpreting or sight translating from any spoken or signed language (the other language ) into English and from English into the other language for any person.
General duty to the Court
2. An interpreter has an overriding duty to assist the Court impartially.
3. An interpreter's paramount duty is to the Court and not to any party to or witness in the proceeding, including the person retaining or paying the interpreter.
4. An interpreter is not an advocate, agent or assistant for a party or witness.
Duty to comply with directions
5. An interpreter must comply with any direction of the Court.
Duty of accuracy
6. An interpreter must at all times use the interpreter's best judgement to be accurate in the interpreter's interpretation or sight translation.
7. In this code, "accurately" , in relation to interpreting or translating, means optimally and completely transferring the meaning of the other language into English and of English into the other language, preserving the content and intent of the other language or English (as the case may be) without omission or distortion and including matters that may be considered inappropriate or offensive.
8. If an interpreter considers that the interpreter's interpretation or sight translation is or could be in any way inaccurate or incomplete or requires qualification or explanation (including, without limitation, where the other language is ambiguous or otherwise unclear for any reason), then the interpreter must—
(a) immediately inform the party who engaged them and provide the necessary correction, qualification or explanation to that party; and
(b) if the evidence is being given or was given in court, immediately inform the Court and provide the necessary correction, qualification or explanation to the Court.
Duty of impartiality
9. An interpreter must at all times act impartially so as to be without bias in favour of or against any person including but not limited to the witness whose evidence the interpreter is interpreting, the party who has engaged or is remunerating the interpreter or any other party to or person involved in the proceeding or proposed proceeding.
10. Unless the Court otherwise orders, an interpreter must not accept an engagement or appointment to act as an interpreter in relation to a proceeding or proposed proceeding if the interpreter—
(a) is or may become a party or a witness;
(b) is related to, or has a close personal relationship with, a party or a member of the party's family, or with a witness or potential witness;
(c) has or may have a financial or other interest of any other kind in the outcome of the proceeding or proposed proceeding (other than an entitlement to a reasonable fee for the services provided by the interpreter in the course of the interpreter's engagement or employment); or
(d) is or may be unable to fulfil the interpreter's duty of accuracy or impartiality for any reason including, without limitation, personal or religious beliefs or cultural or other circumstances.
11. Other than carrying out an engagement or appointment as an interpreter, the interpreter must not provide any other assistance, service or advice (including by way of elaboration) to—
(a) the party, legal practitioner or other person who has engaged them; or
(b) any witness or potential witness, in relation to the proceeding or proposed proceeding.
Duty of competence
12. An interpreter must only undertake work the interpreter is competent to perform in the languages for which the interpreter is qualified by reason of the interpreter's training, qualifications or experience.
13. If it becomes apparent in the course of a matter that expertise beyond the interpreter's competence is required, the interpreter must inform the Court immediately and work to resolve the situation, either withdrawing from the matter or following another strategy acceptable to the Court.
Confidentiality
14. Subject to compulsion of law, an interpreter must keep confidential any information that the interpreter acquires in the course of the engagement or appointment as an interpreter (including any communication subject to client legal privilege) unless—
(a) that information is in, or comes into, the public domain other than by an act of the interpreter in breach of this duty of confidentiality; or
(b) the beneficiary of the client legal privilege has waived
that privilege.
