ROYAL COMMISSION (POLICE SERVICE) ACT 1994 - SECT 9

9 Self-incrimination

(s 26 ICAC Act)

(1) This section applies where, under section 6 or 7, the Commissioner requires any person:

(a) to produce any statement of information, or

(b) to produce any document or other thing.

(2) If the statement, document or other thing tends to incriminate the person and the person objects to production at the time, neither the fact of the requirement nor the statement, document or thing itself (if produced) may be used in any proceedings against the person (except proceedings for an offence against this Act or the 1923 Act).

(3) They may however be used for the purposes of the Commission’s inquiry, despite any such objection.
