### sec.116 Limited application of divs 5 to 7 for registry committals
If there is a registry committal, subject to subsection (2) , it takes the place of the procedures relating to committal for trial or sentence that would otherwise apply, or would otherwise continue to apply, under divisions 5 , 6 and 7 .
Section 110A (12) to (15) , and any other provision of this or another Act directly or indirectly referred to in section 110A (12) to (15) , have effect for a registry committal, to the greatest practicable extent, as if a reference to a written statement admitted in accordance with section 110A were a reference to a written statement given in evidence for the registry committal (other than the evidence of any affected child under the Evidence Act 1977 , part 2 , division 4A , given under the requirements of that division).
