The June issue of Irish Criminal Law Update is now available for subscribers of the service.
This month, Laura Byrne BL considers the case of The People (DPP) v AM. The Supreme Court considered in detail the competing interests and rights engaged in determining whether to disclose counselling records to an accused person. The court considered the constitutional rights and principles that apply before going on to consider the ambit of the legislative scheme for counselling records under s 19A of the Criminal Evidence Act 1992. The Supreme Court highlighted the issues with the practical operation of the scheme and emphasises the importance of a complainant providing informed consent to the disclosure of such records, based on sight and understanding of the contents of the said records. The Supreme Court also considered the Willoughby test in relation to the role of new evidence in a matter. The court discussed the criteria for cross examining on a prior inconsistent statement.
