118 No privilege against self-incrimination

(1) A person cannot decline to answer any question that the person has been required to answer, or to produce any record or other document that the person has been required to produce, on the ground that the answer, record or document might tend to incriminate the person.

(2) If, before answering the question or producing the record or document, the person claims that the answer, record or document might tend to incriminate the person, then neither the question nor the answer, nor any record or document produced, is admissible in evidence against the person in any criminal proceedings other than proceedings relating to—

(a) the refusal or failure to answer any question or produce any record or document; or

(b) the furnishing of any answer, record or document that is false or misleading.
