X can make an oral application for bail at any time to a magistrate before whom he is appearing. A written application for bail must be in the form of a petition and must be accompanied by a copy of the document authorizing the detention of the applicant or an affidavit that a copy is denied. All such applications must be disposed of without undue delay: s 117A(3) CPEA.
It is provided in s 117A(10) that for the purposes of a bail application, X is not entitled to have access to any information, record or document relating to the offence in question that is contained in the police docket.
