It is often the case that evidence from a computer is part of the evidential picture. Amendment 207 would allow for that. It would give structure to the questions that the court should ask but leave it to the court to weigh those considerations for itself. Once the court has determined the integrity of the evidence, it will be free to consider its contribution to the whole. It follows that the more important or central the data, the more important it is that reliability is assured.
