36Legal or other representation

36 Legal or other representation (1) A witness at an examination may request the ICAC to allow the witness to be represented by a legal practitioner or agent. (2) The ICAC must grant a request for legal representation unless the request is for representation by a particular legal practitioner the presence of whom the ICAC believes on reasonable grounds would prejudice the investigation because that legal practitioner is: (a) a witness in the investigation or another investigation; or (b) the representative of another witness in the investigation or another investigation; or (c) a person involved in, or suspected of being involved in, a matter being investigated by the ICAC; or (d) the representative of a person involved in, or suspected of being involved in, a matter being investigated by the ICAC. (3) The ICAC may grant a request for representation by an agent other than a legal practitioner if the ICAC considers it appropriate to do so. (4) The legal practitioner or agent may: (a) make submissions to the ICAC; and (b) with the ICAC's approval, ask the witness questions relevant to the investigation.
