MR J TURNER QC and MR J HALL appeared on behalf of THE APPELLANT MR R NEILL appeared on behalf of THE CROWN ____________________
"56. As to the making of complaints against other persons, the non-disclosure of these matters deprived defence counsel of the opportunity to develop, in cross-examination of the complainant, the suggestion that she makes unfounded allegations, of which the complaint against the [appellant] was one.
The evidence of potential bias in relation Mrs [A] was relevant to her credibility as a witness, particularly in view of the way in which defence counsel cross-examined her, suggesting that she had coached the complainant to give the account that she did."
