This is so particularly in relation to the identification of children who are involved in criminal proceedings or proceedings for their protection under the Child Protection Act 1999, and complainants in criminal sexual offences, but is not limited to those categories. You may wish to seek legal advice before giving others access to the details of any person named in these proceedings. 1 4th Floor, The Law Courts, George Street, Brisbane, Q. 4000 Telephone: (07) 3247 4360 Fax: (07) 3247 5532 -- 1 of 2 -- 24032003 Tl/JFG M/T CNS1/2003 (Jones J) HIS HONOUR: This is an application by David William Beattie for a variation of bail conditions which were ordered by this Court on 3 June 2002. Since the date of that order, committal proceedings have been undertaken which resulted in Mr Beattie not being committed on the major charges in respect of which bail had previously been ordered. The respondent to the bail application, the Director of Public Prosecutions does not oppose the application, seeking now that the bail order be revoked . In respect of the remaining charges for which Mr Beattie is required to attend the Magistrates Court, he has given undertakings about his appearance which are apparently acceptable to the prosecution. In those circumstances, I will make orders in terms of the draft initialled by me and placed with the papers. 211 30 ’'0 2 JUDGMENT -- 2 of 2 --
