provides for the use a witness may make of a document to revive memory about a fact or opinion. This can be done only with the leave of the court. The section sets out some of the matters the court may take into account in determining whether to give leave (for example, whether the witness will be able to recall the fact or opinion adequately without using the document). The clause also allows the court to give a witness leave to read aloud from a document. The court will be required to order that the relevant part of the document be produced to a party, if that party requests this.
