Foreign Influence Transparency Scheme Act 2018

A person is not excused from giving information or producing a document or a copy of a document under section 45 or 46 on the ground that the information or the production of the document or copy might tend to incriminate the person or expose the person to a penalty.

However, in the case of an individual:

the information given or the document or copy produced; and

giving the information or producing the document or copy; and

any information, document or thing obtained as a direct or indirect consequence of giving the information or producing the document or copy;

Paragraph (2)(c) confers a derivative use immunity. For example, in criminal proceedings for an offence by an individual against Part 5.2 of the Criminal Code (espionage and related offences), any information, document or other thing obtained as a direct or indirect consequence of the individual giving information or producing documents in compliance with a notice under section 45 or 46 would not be admissible.
