26 .         Accused’s general entitlement to prosecution notice

        (1)         If an accused or an accused’s lawyer asks a court for a copy of a prosecution notice containing a charge against the accused that has been lodged with the court and that has not been determined or dismissed, the court must provide one free of charge, unless the request is unreasonable.

        (2)         Failure to comply with subsection (1) does not invalidate the prosecution notice or the commencement of the prosecution but may be grounds for adjourning the prosecution.
