[2011] EWCA Crim 1212

Although a judge had erred, when giving a direction under the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 s.34, by failing to identify matters relied on in evidence which the defendant might reasonably have been expected to mention in certain interviews, that did not make his conviction unsafe in circumstances where the direction had been appropriate in relation to other interviews.
