National Consumer Credit Protection Act 2009
In proceedings in a court when exercising jurisdiction in relation to a criminal matter arising under this Act, a body corporate is not entitled to refuse or fail to comply with a requirement:
(a) to answer a question or give information; or
(b) to produce a book or any other thing; or
(c) to do any other act whatever;
on the ground that the answer or information, production of the book or other thing, or doing that other act might tend:
(d) to incriminate the body (whether in relation to an offence to which the proceedings relate or otherwise); or
(e) to make the body liable to a penalty (whether in relation to anything to which the proceedings relate or otherwise). 208(2) [ Application of subsection (1)]
Subsection (1) applies whether or not the body concerned is a defendant in the proceedings or in any other proceedings.
