The expert brief of Mr Flay was excluded because it was inadmissible hearsay under s 17 Evidence Act 2006 and neither s 18 nor s 19 rendered the generalized assertion that Christchurch practices were "typical" admissible; the correct evidential route is primary records or putting the assertion to the defendant's expert in cross-examination.
