61Exceptions to the hearsay rule dependant on competency

61 Exceptions to the hearsay rule dependant on competency (1) This Part does not enable use of a previous representation to prove the existence of an asserted fact if, when the representation was made, the person who made it was not competent to give evidence about the fact because of section 13(1). Evidence (National Uniform Legislation) Act 2011 33 (2) This section does not apply to a contemporaneous representation made by a person about his or her health, feelings, sensations, intention, knowledge or state of mind. For the admissibility of such contemporaneous representations, see section 66A. (3) For the purposes of this section, it is presumed, unless the contrary is proved, that when the representation was made the person who made it was competent to give evidence about the asserted fact.
