FGM quiz

Question 1

is lifelong anonymity provided to all victims and others involved without any exceptions in FGM?

Answer 1

False

There are 2 limited circumstances where the court may dis-apply the restrictions on publications:

A person being tried for an FGM offense could have their defence substantially prejudiced if the restriction to prevent identification of the person against whom the allegation of FGM was committed is not lifted
Preventing the identification of the person against whom the allegation of FGM was committed could impose a substantial and unreasonable restriction on the reporting of the proceedings and is therefore considered in the public interest to remove this restriction.
