CRIMES ACT 1914 SECT 15C

(1)

At the hearing of any indictment, information or summons, the court may make such amendment in the indictment, information or summons as appears to it to be desirable or to be necessary to enable the real question in dispute to be determined.

(2)

If in any such case the court considers that the defendant has been misled by the form in which the indictment, information or summons has been made out, it may adjourn the hearing of the case for such period as it thinks fit and may make such order as to the costs of the adjournment as it thinks proper.

(3)      The power of the court under subsection (1) shall not be exercised in cases where
          the court considers that the required amendments cannot be made without injustice
          to the defendant.
