The Supreme Court has issued a policy on the anonymisation of personal information that is recorded in transcripts and judgments to

• prevent identity theft in relation to litigants and witnesses involved in court proceedings and
• to anonymise the identities of accused persons and witnesses in appropriate cases.

This policy is effective from 29 January 2008. The full details of this policy can be accessed from the Supreme Court Policies web page.
