| Summary |
"This paper explores the meaning of 'inquisitorial' in civil law jurisdictions, and assesses whether the European model has been faithfully adopted in the context of Australian tribunals. In light of the negative answer to that question, the paper next considers what descriptor should be used for Australian tribunals not operating in an adversary mode and what flows from the allocation of the label 'inquisitorial'. The views of Australian federal courts and key tribunals are examined to give practical content to what is meant in Australia in describing a tribunal's procedures as 'inquisitorial'". -- p. 1 |
