When is the deadline for defamation claims?
The catalogue records a 24 months period from Date of the act or omission on which the claim is based (or the late knowledge date). This draft page remains free only until its source, worked example and limits are reviewed.
Source link required
This page is in preparation. It does not offer an automated deadline or a paid record until the missing source or calculator evidence is complete.
In preparation
The existing catalogue does not yet have a registered adapter or source evidence for this exact question. It remains available as a public preparation page only.
Example pending review
A separately reviewed fixture is required before this question can become indexable. The page does not present an unreviewed output as an example.
Calculation basis and source
- Period
- 24 months
- Trigger
- Date of the act or omission on which the claim is based (or the late knowledge date)
- Counting
- The encoded calculator method must be independently documented before publication.
- Rollovers and holidays
- Holiday, closure and order treatment must be independently documented before publication.
This route remains in preparation until a pinpoint official source is recorded.
- Corrected on verification: s 15 confirmed verbatim, reading '6 years' in s 11(1) and '3 years' in s 11(3)(a) each as '2 years'; the full heading is 'Defamation claims: primary period and late knowledge period each 2 years'. Citation wrong on structure: no subparts exist in the Act.
