Hearsay Question? Discuss and Explain Anyone

ID@THEWIDOWS

The right of a person to have evidence against him given orally and tested by cross examination before the tribunal in question may be of such importance in case that to deprive the person concerned of that right would amount to a breach of the basic fairness of procedures to which he is entitled by virtue of article 40.1 of the Constitution. It is not simply because the court is in greater danger of arriving at an unfair conclusion, absent the safeguard of material evidence given orally and tested by cross examination... It is because depending on the nature of the evidence it's admission in that in that form may offend either its statutory or common law vesture.


The above is refers to the hearsay rule. Anyone have any thought further thoughts on exactly what Keane J in Borges v Medical was alluding too?
