 (b) the person whose opinion it is has specialised knowledge based on the person's training, study or experience; and
 (c) the opinion is wholly or substantially based on that knowledge.
 (2) If such evidence has been admitted, the hearsay rule, the opinion rule and the tendency rule do not apply to evidence adduced to prove that that evidence should not be accepted.
