• (3) If the special advocate does not challenge the application or the objection, he or she must give notice of that fact to the Court, the relevant person and the Secretary of State no later than the end of—

• (a) 14 days after the date on which the relevant person or the Secretary of State serves on the special advocate the notice under rule 10(5)(b) or the material under rule 12(2), or

• (b) such other period as the Court may direct.

• (4) Where the Court fixes a hearing under this rule, the relevant person, the Secretary of State and the special advocate shall before the hearing file with the Court a schedule identifying the issues which cannot be agreed between them, which shall also—

• (a) give brief reasons for their contentions in relation to each issue; and

• (b) set out any proposals for the Court to resolve those issues.

• (5) A hearing under this rule shall take place in the absence of the specially represented party and the specially represented party’s legal representative.

• (6) Where the Court has, in determining an application for a declaration under section 6 of the Act, found that the first condition in section 6 of the Act is met in relation to any material, it may give permission to withhold that material without a hearing in relation to that material, whether or not a hearing is required in relation to any other material.

• (7) Where the Court gives permission to the relevant person to withhold sensitive material, the Court —

• (a) shall consider whether to direct the relevant person to serve a summary of that material on the specially represented party and the specially represented party’s legal representative; but

• (b) shall ensure that any such summary does not contain material the disclosure of which would be damaging to the interests of national security.

• (8) If the Court is satisfied that—

• (a) the relevant person does not intend to rely on sensitive material, and

• (b) that material does not adversely affect the relevant person’s case or support the case of another party to the proceedings,

the Court may direct that the relevant person must not rely in the proceedings on that material, without the Court first requiring the relevant person to serve a summary of that material on the specially represented party and the specially represented party’s legal representative.

• (9) Where the Court has not given permission to the relevant person to withhold sensitive material from, or has directed the relevant person to serve a summary of that material on, the specially represented party and the specially represented party’s legal representative—

• (a) the relevant person shall not be required to serve that material or summary; but

• (b) if the relevant person does not do so, at a hearing on notice the Court may—

• (i) if it considers that the material or anything that is required to be summarised might adversely affect the relevant person’s case or support the case of another party to the proceedings, direct that the relevant person is not to rely on such points in the relevant person’s case, or that the relevant person makes such concessions or takes such other steps as the Court may direct; and

• (ii) in any other case, direct that the relevant person shall not rely in the proceedings on that material or (as the case may be) on what is required to be summarised.

• (10) The Court shall give permission to the relevant person to withhold sensitive material where it considers that disclosure of that material would be damaging to the interests of national security.

Failure to comply with directions

14

• (1) Where a party or the special advocate fails to comply with a direction of the Court, the Court may serve on that person a notice which states—

• (a) the respect in which that person has failed to comply with the direction;

• (b) a time limit for complying with the direction; and

• (c) that the Court may proceed to determine the proceedings before it on the material before it if that person fails to comply with the direction within that time limit.

• (2) Where a party or the special advocate fails to comply with the direction after such a notice, the Court may proceed in accordance with paragraph (1)(c).

Judgments

15

• (1) Where the Court gives judgment in any proceedings to which this Part applies, it may withhold any, or any part, of its reasons if and to the extent that it is not possible to give those reasons without disclosing information the disclosure of which would be damaging to the interests of national security.

• (2) Where the judgment of the Court does not include the full reasons for its decision, the Court shall serve on the relevant person, the Secretary of State (where not the relevant person) and the special advocate a separate written judgment giving those reasons.

Application by the Secretary of State or relevant person for reconsideration of decision

16

• (1) If the Court proposes, in any proceedings to which this Order applies, to serve on a specially represented party—

• (a) notice of any order or direction made or given in the absence of the Secretary of State or, if the relevant person is not the Secretary of State, the absence of the relevant person; or

• (b) any written judgment;

then before the Court serves any such notice or judgment on the specially represented party, it shall first serve notice on the Secretary of State and, if the relevant person is not the Secretary of State, on the relevant person, of its intention to do so.

• (2) The Secretary of State or relevant person may, within 5 days of being served with notice under paragraph (1), apply to the Court to reconsider the terms of the order or direction or to review the terms of the proposed judgment if the Secretary of State or relevant person considers that—

• (a) the Secretary of State or relevant person’s compliance with the order or direction; or

• (b) the notification to the specially represented party of any matter contained in the judgment, order or direction,

would cause information to be disclosed where such disclosure would be damaging to the interests of national security.

• (3) Where the Secretary of State or relevant person makes an application under paragraph (2), the Secretary of State or relevant person must at the same time serve on the special advocate—

• (a) a copy of the application; and

• (b) a copy of the notice served on the Secretary of State or relevant person pursuant to paragraph (1).

• (4) Rule 13 (consideration of closed material application or of objection to special advocate’s communication), except for paragraphs (6) to (8) of that rule, applies with any necessary modifications to the consideration of an application under paragraph (2) of this rule.

• (5) The Court shall not serve notice or a written judgment on the specially represented party as mentioned in paragraph (1) before the time for the Secretary of State or relevant person to make an application under paragraph (2) has expired.

2

In this Order—

• (i) to communicate to the person who needs interpretation anything said at the hearing and explain it so far as is necessary for him to understand it; or

• (ii) to communicate any answers given by the person who needs interpretation, and any other matters that he seeks to convey, and explain them so far as is necessary to enable the court and others at the hearing to understand them,

and references to interpretation shall be construed accordingly;

• (c) references to acting at a hearing include assisting the person who needs interpretation to communicate with his legal representative during the hearing and in relation to such assistance, rule 2(b)(ii) has effect as if the reference to the court and others present at the hearing were to the legal representative.
