89Y Self-incriminatory information
(1) A person required to give information in connection with an audit
under this Division must do so whether or not the information might
tend to incriminate the person or make the person liable to a
penalty.
(2) If the giving of information might tend to incriminate a person or
make the person liable to a penalty, the fact of giving the
information (as distinct from the contents of the information) is not
admissible in evidence against the person in proceedings for an
offence or for the imposition of a penalty (other than proceedings in
respect of giving misleading information).
