Examination by judicial member
187 Examination by judicial member
(1) A judicial member may require a
person (including an officer or employee of the Crown) who appears before the
Parole Authority to answer a question that is reasonably related to the
proceedings before the Parole Authority.
(2) A natural person is not excused
from answering a question put to the person by a judicial member on the ground
that the answer tends to incriminate the person.
(3) If a person claims,
before answering such a question, that the answer tends to incriminate the
person, neither the question nor the answer is admissible in evidence against
the person in criminal proceedings, other than proceedings for an offence
under section 188 (c) or on a charge of perjury in respect of the answer.
