EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
STATUTORY RULES 1988 No. 230
Issued by the authority of the Justices of the High Court of Australia
AMENDMENTS TO THE HIGH COURT RULES
Rule 4 of Order 59 has been amended to decrease the summer vacation by one week and increase the winter vacation by the same period. The alteration will facilitate the work of the Court by allowing a longer period in the middle of the year for judgments to be brought up to date. This will generally contribute to the orderly disposition of the Court’s work.
