13  The effect of an apology on liability
  For the purposes of this Schedule, an apology made by or on behalf of the defendant in connection with the invasion of privacy:
 (a) does not constitute an express or implied admission of fault or liability by the defendant in connection with the invasion of privacy; and
 (b) is not relevant to the determination of fault or liability in connection with the invasion of privacy.
Note: The court may consider whether the defendant apologised to the plaintiff in determining the amount of damages (if any) to award to the plaintiff (see paragraph 11(6)(a)).
