Discovery—Australia
The Australian Law Reform Commission recommends a facilitative approach to
discovery in federal courts in a report that:
makes recommendations about, among other things, the production
and inspection of documents prior to discovery; when parties should
file discovery plans; best-practice guidelines on the formation and
content of discovery plans; judicial and practitioner training; the role
of registrars and referees; costs orders; pre-trial oral examinations;
and data collection.
