Application of Part

    (1)     This Part sets out basic requirements for oaths and affirmations that may be used if an oath or affirmation is required to be taken by or under an Act or by convention.

    (2)     Only section 12 of this Part applies in respect of an oath taken or an affirmation made by—

        (a)     a witness in a proceeding to which the Evidence Act 2008 applies; or

        (b)     a person acting as an interpreter in a proceeding to which that Act applies.
