Inspector may refer matter to investigative entity

    (1)     This section applies if the inspector reasonably believes that a matter can be more appropriately dealt with by an investigative entity other than the inspector.

"investigative entity "means an entity with power to require the production of documents or the answering of questions including, for example, the chief police officer, the human rights commission and the ombudsman.
