[2009] EWCA Crim 1471

The Crown's trial counsel was not required to stand down for the purposes of an appeal where an appellant complained of substantial non-disclosure. The appellant's interests could be protected by the use of careful directions to ensure that he had all the materials and explanation that he reasonably required, including a note from counsel explaining the failure of the disclosure process.
