50ZJ Privilege against self-incrimination does not apply
It is not a reasonable excuse for a person to refuse or fail to comply with a requirement under this Act to give information (including answering a question) or to produce a document to the Victorian Racing Tribunal on the ground that the information or document might tend to incriminate the person or make the person liable to a penalty.
If a person claims, before giving information or producing a document to the Victorian Racing Tribunal, that the information or document might tend to incriminate the person, the information or document is not admissible in evidence in any criminal proceeding, other than in a proceeding in respect of section 50ZI in relation to the falsity of the information given.
