Crimes (Criminal Trials) Act 1999 - SECT 21

Retrial

21. Retrial

If a retrial is held, the court may treat any order made, direction given or
any other thing done at a directions hearing held in connection with the
earlier trial as if it had been made, given or done at a directions hearing
held in connection with the retrial unless to do so would, in the opinion of
the court, be inconsistent with any order made or direction or ruling given on
an appeal or would otherwise not be in the interests of justice.
