36. Examination of witnesses abroad in District Court cases

The General Division of the High Court, on application made in the manner prescribed by Rules of Court, has the same power to issue a request or an order to examine witnesses abroad for the purpose of civil proceedings in a District Court as it has for the purpose of an action or matter in the General Division of the High Court.

Where such an application is made, the General Division of the High Court may, if it thinks fit, order the proceedings to be transferred to the General Division of the High Court.
