| Summary | PRACTICE AND PROCEDURE - Reasons for declining application for order suppressing name and evidence identifying witness - Non-publication order sought since witness was going to be asked to admit to committing crime - Not sufficient grounds for non-publication order - Not Authority's role to ensure witness' evidence could have been given in secret - Adequate protection existed for witnesses - Not in interests of justice to make order sought - Applicant wished to challenge determination - No need for interim order since witness had not yet given evidence - Authority did not intend to make name of witness or identifying details public so challenge could not have been compromised |
