CRIMINAL PROCEDURE ACT 1865 - SECT 4

As to proof of contradictory statements of adverse witness.

4. If a witness, upon cross-examination as to a former statement made by him
relative to the subject matter of the indictment or proceeding, and
inconsistent with his present testimony, does not distinctly admit that he has
made such statement, proof may be given that he did in fact make it; but
before such proof can be given the circumstances of the supposed statement,
sufficient to designate the particular occasion, must be mentioned to the
witness, and he must be asked whether or not he has made such statement.
