(1) If the ATSB reasonably believes that, in making the report, the person who made it has committed an offence under section 137.1 of the Criminal Code (False or misleading information), the ATSB must not: (a) destroy the report, or any part of it; or (b) return the report, or any part of it, to a person; until 2 years after the day the report was made. (2) If a prosecution for an offence against section 137.1 of the Criminal Code in relation to the report is commenced during those 2 years, the ATSB must not destroy, or return to a person, any part of the report that is required to be kept for the purpose of the prosecution, until that part of the report is no longer required for that purpose.
