- HCCC259/2015
The court refused a permanent stay on the materials before it, adjourned the stay application and trial to enable the prosecution to pursue reasonable lines of inquiry and take reasonable steps to obtain overseas material (to be tested by evidence at the adjourned hearing), and varied bail by lifting the travel restriction so the defendant could return to Australia subject to conditions; the prosecution must demonstrate at the adjourned hearing what steps were taken and produce evidence on disclosure and any public interest immunity claim.
