Requirement to give information or document for investigation
86 Requirement to give information or document for investigation
In investigating a key person licensee, the chief executive may, by written notice given to the licensee, require the licensee to give the chief executive information or a document the chief executive considers relevant to the investigation.
When making the requirement, the chief executive must warn the key person licensee that it is an offence to fail to comply with the requirement, unless the licensee has a reasonable excuse.
The key person licensee must comply with the requirement, unless the licensee has a reasonable excuse.Maximum penalty—200 penalty units or 2 years imprisonment.
It is a reasonable excuse if complying with the requirement might tend to incriminate the key person licensee.
The key person licensee does not commit an offence against this section if the information or document sought by the chief executive is not in fact relevant to the investigation.
