Commentary on provisions of Act Section 4: Use of languages other than English in proceedings
Section 4 repeals the Administration of Justice (Language) Act (Ireland) 1737. Facilitation of languages other than English in court proceedings is a matter for the NI Courts and Tribunals Service, which in common with courts across the UK makes provision for those who cannot speak English to be provided with interpreter and translation services at their own or the Court’s cost depending on the proceedings in hand.
