10Q Eligibility assessor may be required to attend hearing
The court or the respondent may require an eligibility assessor to attend to give evidence at the hearing of the proceeding to which the report relates by filing a written notice with the court as soon as possible and, if practicable, not later than 2 working days before the hearing.
On the filing of a notice, a registrar for the court must immediately arrange for the person concerned to be notified that the person’s attendance is required on the date stated in the notice.
A person who under this section, has been required by the respondent to attend the hearing of a proceeding must, if required by the respondent, be called as a witness and may be cross‑examined by the respondent on the contents of the eligibility assessment report.
