SUPREME COURT (GENERAL CIVIL PROCEDURE) RULES 2015 - REG 30.11

Answers as evidence

    (1)     On an application in or at the trial of a proceeding a party may tender as evidence—

        (a)     one or more answers to interrogatories given by another party without tendering the others;

        (b)     part of an answer to an interrogatory without tendering the whole of the answer.

    (2)     Upon the tender of the whole or part of an answer to an interrogatory, the Court may look at the whole of the answers and if any other answer or any part of an answer is so connected with the matter tendered that the matter tendered ought not to be used without the other answer or part, the Court may reject the tender unless that other answer or part is also tendered.

    (3)     Where the answer of a party interrogated is stated to be given on the basis of belief, and the answer is received into evidence, the Court or the jury, as the case may be, shall give the answer such weight as the circumstances require.
