(5) If the court so directs, the order in which the parties question the
witness is to be as the court directs.
(6) Without limiting the matters that the court may take into account in
determining whether to give leave or a direction under this section,
it is to take into account:
(a) whether the party gave notice at the earliest opportunity of the
party's intention to seek leave; and
(b) the matters on which, and the extent to which, the witness has
been, or is likely to be, questioned by another party.
(7) A party is subject to the same liability to be cross-examined under
this section as any other witness if:
(a) a proceeding is being conducted in the name of the party by or
on behalf of an insurer or other person; and
(b) the party is a witness in the proceeding.
