80E Information requirements
This section applies if the registrar suspects on reasonable grounds that a person—
has information (the required information) reasonably required by the registrar for the administration or enforcement of this Act or an operational Act; or
has possession or control of a document containing the required information.
The registrar may give the person a notice (an information requirement) requiring the person to give the information, or produce the document, to the registrar.
The information requirement must be in writing and must include details of the following:
the identity of the person to whom it is given;
why the information is required;
the time by which the notice must be complied with;
the operation of section 80G (Contravention of information requirement).
A person does not incur any civil or criminal liability only because the person gives information, or produces a document, to the registrar in accordance with an information requirement.
