(1) In the case of any petition for divorce or for nullity of marriage—
(a) the Court may, if it thinks fit, direct all necessary papers in the matter to be sent to the Attorney General (as Queen's Proctor) who may instruct counsel to argue before the Court any question in relation to the matter which the Court deems to be necessary or expedient to have fully argued; and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Attorney General in the matter are hereby charged upon the Consolidated Fund;
(b) any person may at any time during the progress of the proceedings or before the decree nisi is made absolute give information to the Attorney General of any matter material to the due decision of the case, and the Attorney General may thereupon take such steps as he or she may consider necessary or expedient;
(c) the Court may order the costs or any part thereof arising from such intervention to be paid by any of the parties, including a wife if she has separate property, or by the Attorney General;
(d) all reasonable costs which the Attorney General may have incurred arising from any such intervention after deducting any costs which may have been paid to him or her by either of the parties to the petition are hereby charged upon the Consolidated Fund.
(2) In every case in which any person is charged with adultery with any party to a suit or in which the Court may consider, in the interest of any person not already a party to the suit, that that person should be made a party to the suit, the Court may if it thinks fit allow that person to intervene upon such terms, if any, as the Court thinks just.
