Regulation 5

All meetings of the juvenile case conference shall be convened and chaired by the facilitator.

The facilitator shall cause to be sent to each member of the juvenile case conference a notice in writing specifying the date, time and place of the meeting of the juvenile case conference and may, in such notice, call upon any member of the juvenile case conference to furnish any document for the consideration of the juvenile case conference during its meeting.

No member of the juvenile case conference shall act as an interpreter during its meetings, and where any member of the juvenile case conference requires the assistance of an interpreter, the Registrar shall arrange for the necessary court interpreter to be present.

Except with the approval of a judge of the Youth Court, no member of the juvenile case conference shall be represented by an advocate and solicitor during its meetings.

Subject to the directions of a judge of the Youth Court and to such modifications as the circumstances of the case may require, the facilitator shall conduct the meeting of the juvenile case conference in accordance with the procedure set out in the Schedule.
