56 Abrogation of privilege against self-incrimination

(1)

A person is not excused from answering a question or providing information or a document under this division on the ground that the answer to the question, or the information or document, may tend to incriminate the person or expose the person to a penalty.

(2)

However, any information, document or thing obtained, directly or indirectly, because of the giving of the answer or the production of the document is not admissible in evidence against the person in a civil or criminal proceeding, other than a proceeding for an offence arising out of the false or misleading nature of the answer, information or document.
