The applicant, charged with manslaughter and aggravated assault, sought disclosure of a police occurrence report concerning a youth witness to use for cross-examination.
The report detailed an interaction where no charges were laid and no further action was taken.
The court held that taking no further action constitutes an extrajudicial measure under the Youth Criminal Justice Act.
Consequently, access to the record is barred under section 119(4) of the Act, and cross-examination on it is impermissible.
The application for disclosure was dismissed.
