๐ Evidence (Prescribed Persons) Amendment Regulations 2022
RegulationsSL 2022/2042 December 2022
Principal Act
These regulations amend the Evidence (Prescribed Persons) Regulations 2005. They insert a definition for 'PathWest Laboratory Medicine WA', update a regulation regarding prescribed offices, and replace a regulation listing prescribed persons (forensic scientists) within PathWest's Forensic Biology Department for the purposes of the Evidence Act 1906.
PathWest Laboratory Medicine WA and its Forensic Biology Department are directly affected, as the regulations clarify the definition and list of prescribed forensic scientists whose evidence is admissible under the Evidence Act. This ensures clarity and legal certainty regarding who can provide forensic evidence.
