As the Australian Law Reform Commission (ALRC) had received a comprehensive reference on evidence in federal and territory courts, the Commission decided that further work on this project would be an unnecessary duplication. The reference was withdrawn in 1983. The Commission undertook to examine this aspect of the ALRC’s final report when it was submitted. (For comments, see Project No. 95: paras 20.13–20.15, 35.1–35.3, 35.11–35.12).
