55 Relevant evidence
(1)
The evidence that is relevant in a proceeding is evidence that, if it were accepted, could rationally affect (directly or indirectly) the assessment of the probability of the existence of a fact in issue in the proceeding.
(2)
In particular, evidence is not taken to be irrelevant only because it relates only to:
(a)
the credibility of a witness; or
(b)
the admissibility of other evidence; or
(c)
a failure to adduce evidence.
