Cross‑jurisdictional transfers between lower courts and superior courts

 (a) the transferring court does not have the power to transfer the matter to that receiving court; but
 (b) the transferring court may:
 (i) transfer the matter to the relevant superior court; and
 (ii) give the relevant superior court a recommendation that the matter be transferred to that receiving court by the relevant superior court.
