Self‑incrimination
74 Self‑incrimination
Subject to subsection (2), a natural person is not required to give information or produce a document under this Part if the answer to the question or the contents of the document would tend to incriminate the person of an offence.
If an authorised officer informs a natural person required to give information or produce a document under this Part that the requirement is made for the administration or enforcement of Part
6 relating to the safety of electricity infrastructure, an electrical installation or electrical equipment, and the information or document would tend to incriminate the person of an offence, the person must nevertheless give the information or produce the document, but the information or document so given or produced will not be admissible in evidence against the person in proceedings for an offence (other than an offence relating to the making of a false or misleading statement or declaration).
