72 Power to require CDS approval holder or CDS supplier to
produce document
(1) For the administration of this Act, an authorised officer may, by
written notice, require the holder of a CDS approval or a CDS
supplier to produce a document held or kept by the approval holder
or supplier under this Act to the officer for inspection.
(2) The notice must state it is an offence to fail to produce the
document unless the approval holder or CDS supplier has a
reasonable excuse.
(3) The authorised officer may keep a produced document to take an
extract from, or make a copy of, the document.
(4) The approval holder or CDS supplier must comply with the notice.
(6) It is a defence to a prosecution for an offence against
subsection (4) if the defendant has a reasonable excuse.
(7) Without limiting subsection (6), it is a reasonable excuse for an
approval holder or CDS supplier to fail to produce a document if
complying with the requirement might tend to incriminate the
approval holder or supplier.
