(4) Where a Connétable or Centenier, pursuant to paragraph (2), imposes any condition of bail or, pursuant to paragraph (3), varies or imposes new conditions of bail, he shall, with a view to enabling the accused to consider requesting him or the Magistrate to vary the conditions, give reasons for imposing or varying the conditions and give notice of the reasons to the accused.

(6) For the purposes of this Part a person who returns to a police station to answer to bail or is arrested under Article 44 shall be treated as arrested for an offence and the offence in connection with which he was granted bail shall be deemed to be that offence. 33 Designated police stations (1) The Chief Officer shall designate police stations which, except as provided by Article 28, shall be the stations to be used for the purpose of detaining arrested persons.

(4) Paragraph (1) shall not render admissible a confession made by an accused person that would not be admissible under Article 74. 65 Business etc. documents (1) Subject to paragraphs (3) and (4) a statement in a document shall be admissible in criminal proceedings as evidence of any fact of which oral evidence would be admissible if the following conditions are satisfied – (a) the document was created or received by a person in the course of a trade, business, profession or other occupation, or as the holder of a paid or unpaid office; and (b) the information contained in the document was supplied by a person, whether or not the maker of the statement, who had, or may reasonably be supposed to have had, personal knowledge of the matters dealt with.

(4) A statement prepared otherwise than in accordance with Article 4 of the Criminal Justice (International Co-operation) (Jersey) Law 2001 [46] for the purposes of pending or contemplated criminal proceedings or a criminal investigation, shall not be admissible by virtue of paragraph (1) unless the requirements of one of the sub-paragraphs of Article 64(2) of this Law are satisfied, the requirements of paragraph (3) of that Article are satisfied or the person who made the statement cannot reasonably be expected, having regard to the time which has elapsed since he made the statement and to all the circumstances, to have any recollection of the matters dealt with in the statement. 66 Principles to be followed (1) If, having regard to all the circumstances, a court, in any proceedings, is of the opinion that in the interests of justice a statement which is admissible by virtue of Article 64 or 65 nevertheless ought not to be admitted, it may direct that the statement shall not be admitted. (2) Without prejudice to the generality of paragraph (1), the court shall have regard – (a) to the nature and source of the document containing the statement and to whether or not, having regard to its nature and source and to any other circumstances that appear to the court to be relevant, it is likely that the document is authentic; (b) to the extent to which the statement appears to supply evidence which would otherwise not be readily available; (c) to the relevance of the evidence that it appears to supply to any issue which is likely to have to be determined in the proceedings; and (d) to any risk, having regard in particular to whether it is likely to be possible to controvert the statement if the person making it does not attend to give oral evidence in the proceedings, that its admission or exclusion will result in unfairness to the accused. 67 Statements in documents that appear to have been prepared for purposes of criminal proceedings or investigations (1) Where a statement which is admissible in criminal proceedings by virtue of Article 64 or 65 appears to the court to have been prepared otherwise than in accordance with Article 4 of the Criminal Justice (International Co-operation) (Jersey) Law 2001 , [47] for the purposes of pending or contemplated criminal proceedings or of a criminal investigation, the statement shall not be given in evidence in any criminal proceedings without the leave of the court, and the court shall not give leave unless it is of the opinion that the statement ought to be admitted in the interests of justice.

(2) Schedule 4 shall have effect for the purpose of supplementing this Article and Articles 64 to 68. 70 Microfilm copies In any criminal proceedings the contents of a document may, whether or not the document is still in existence, be proved by the production of an enlargement of a microfilm copy of that document or of the material part of it, authenticated in any manner that the court may approve. PART 9 EVIDENCE IN CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS - GENERAL Convictions and acquittals 71 Proof of convictions and acquittals (1) Where in any proceedings the fact that a person has in the Island been convicted or acquitted of an offence is admissible in evidence, it may be proved by producing a certificate of conviction or acquittal relating to that offence, and proving that the person named in the certificate as having been convicted or acquitted of the offence is the person whose conviction or acquittal of the offence is to be proved. (2) For the purposes of this Article a certificate of conviction or of acquittal shall consist of a certificate, signed by the Judicial Greffier, giving the substance and effect, omitting the formal parts, of the indictment or charge and of the conviction or acquittal, and a document purporting to be a duly signed certificate of conviction or acquittal under this Article shall be taken to be that certificate unless the contrary is proved. (3) The method of proving a conviction or acquittal authorized by this Article shall be in addition to and not to the exclusion of any other authorized manner of proving a conviction or acquittal. 72 Conviction as evidence of commission of offence (1) In any proceedings the fact that a person other than the accused has been convicted of an offence by or before a court in the Island shall be admissible in evidence for the purpose of proving, where to do so is relevant to any issue in those proceedings, that that person committed that offence, whether or not any other evidence of his having committed that offence is given. (2) In any proceedings in which by virtue of this Article a person other than the accused is proved to have been convicted of an offence by or before a court in the Island, he shall be taken to have committed that offence unless the contrary is proved. (3) In any proceedings where evidence is admissible of the fact that the accused has committed an offence, in so far as that evidence is relevant to any matter in issue in the proceedings for a reason other than a tendency to show in the accused a disposition to commit the kind of offence with which he is charged, if the accused is proved to have been convicted of the offence by or before a court in the Island, he shall be taken to have committed that offence unless the contrary is proved. (4) Nothing in this Article shall prejudice – (a) the admissibility in evidence of any conviction which would be admissible apart from this Article; or (b) the operation of any enactment whereby a conviction or a finding of fact in any proceedings is for the purposes of any other proceedings made conclusive evidence of any fact. 73 Provisions supplementary to Article 72 (1) Where evidence that a person has been convicted of an offence is admissible by virtue of Article 72 then, without prejudice to the reception of any other admissible evidence for the purpose of identifying the facts on which the conviction was based, the contents of any document which is admissible as evidence of the conviction and the contents of the indictment or charge-sheet on which the person in question was convicted shall be admissible in evidence for that purpose. (2) Where in any proceedings the contents of any document are admissible in evidence by virtue of paragraph (1), a copy of that document, or of the material part of it, purporting to be certified or otherwise authenticated by or on behalf of the court or authority having custody of that document shall be admissible in evidence and shall be taken to be a true copy of that document or part unless the contrary is shown.

(3) In any proceedings where the prosecution proposes to give in evidence a confession made by an accused person, the court may of its own motion require the prosecution, as a condition of allowing it to do so, to prove that the confession was not obtained as mentioned in paragraph (2). (4) The fact that a confession is wholly or partly excluded in pursuance of this Article shall not affect the admissibility in evidence – (a) of any facts discovered as a result of the confession; or (b) where the confession is relevant as showing that the accused speaks, writes or expresses himself in a particular way, of so much of the confession as is necessary to show that he does so. (5) Evidence that a fact to which this paragraph applies was discovered as a result of a statement made by an accused person shall not be admissible unless evidence of how it was discovered is given by him or on his behalf. (6) Paragraph (5) applies – (a) to any fact discovered as a result of a confession which is wholly excluded in pursuance of this Article; and (b) to any fact discovered as a result of a confession which is partly so excluded, if the fact is discovered as a result of the excluded part of the confession.

(2) In any case where at the trial of a person before the Magistrate’s Court for an offence it appears to the court that a warning under paragraph (1) would be required if the trial were on indictment, the court shall treat the case as one in which there is a special need for caution before convicting the accused on his confession. (3) In this Article – “independent person” does not include a police officer or a person employed for, or engaged on, police purposes; “mentally impaired” , in relation to a person, means that he is in a state of arrested or incomplete development of mind which includes significant impairment of intelligence and social functioning; and “police purposes” includes the purposes of – (a) police cadets undergoing training with a view to becoming members of the Force; and (b) civilians employed for the purposes of the Force or of those cadets. Miscellaneous 76 Exclusion of unfair evidence (1) Subject to paragraph (2), in any proceedings a court may refuse to allow evidence on which the prosecution proposes to rely to be given if it appears to the court that, having regard to all the circumstances, including the circumstances in which the evidence was obtained, the admission of the evidence would so adversely effect the fairness of the proceedings that the court ought not to admit it. (2) Nothing in this Article shall – (a) prejudice any rule of law requiring a court to exclude evidence; or (b) apply to extradition proceedings or proceedings pursuant to Article 19 of the Loi (1864) réglant la procédure criminelle . [48] (3) Nothing in this Law shall prejudice any power of any court to exclude evidence, whether by preventing questions from being put or otherwise, at its discretion. 77 Time for taking accused’s evidence If at the trial of any person for an offence the defence intends to call 2 or more witnesses to the facts of the case and those witnesses include the accused, the accused shall be called before the other witness or witnesses unless the court in its discretion otherwise directs. Witnesses 78 How far witnesses may be discredited by the party producing In any criminal proceedings, a party producing a witness shall not be allowed to impeach his credit by general evidence of bad character, but he may, in case the witness shall in the opinion of the court prove adverse – (a) contradict him by other evidence; or (b) by leave of the court, prove that he has made at other times a statement inconsistent with his present testimony, but, before the last-mentioned proof can be given, the circumstances of the supposed statement sufficient to designate the particular occasion shall be mentioned to the witness, and he shall be asked whether or not he has made that statement. 79 As to proof of contradictory statements of adverse witness In any criminal proceedings, if a witness, upon cross-examination as to a former statement made by him relative to the subject matter of the indictment or proceedings, and inconsistent with his present testimony, does not distinctly admit that he has made that statement, proof may be given that he did in fact make it, but before that proof can be given the circumstances of the supposed statement, sufficient to designate the particular occasion, shall be mentioned to the witness, and he shall be asked whether or not he has made that statement. 80 Cross-examination as to previous statements in writing (1) In any criminal proceedings, a witness may be cross-examined as to previous statements made by him in writing, or reduced into writing, relative to the subject matter of the proceeding, without that writing being shown to him, but if it is intended to contradict that witness by the writing, his attention shall, before that contradictory proof can be given, be called to those parts of the writing which are to be used for the purpose of so contradicting him. (2) Any court may, at any time during the trial, require the production of any writing referred to in paragraph (1) for inspection, and that court may thereupon make any use of it for the purposes of the trial that that court sees fit. 81 Proof of conviction of a witness for an offence may be given In any criminal proceedings, a witness may be questioned as to whether he has been convicted of any offence, and upon being so questioned, if he either denies or does not admit the fact, or refuses to answer, it shall be lawful for the cross-examining party to prove that conviction. 82 Evidence by certificate (1) In any criminal proceedings, a certificate purporting to be signed by a police officer, or by a person having the prescribed qualifications, and certifying that a plan or drawing exhibited thereto is a plan or drawing made by him of the place or object specified in the certificate, and that the plan or drawing is correctly drawn to a scale so specified, shall be evidence of the relative position of the things shown on the plan or drawing.
