Conclusion
We remain concerned that, in individual cases, the blanket inadmissibility of evidence held by the ICIR could contribute to a serious miscarriage of justice. However, we also recognise the force in the argument that the ICIR will be unable to fulfil its functions as an inviolable repository of knowledge, thereby encouraging the confidence of would-be information providers, if there are exceptions. (Conclusion, Paragraph 151)
