59B Warning to be given by inspector

(1) Before requiring a person to answer a question under section 59 , an inspector must—

(a) warn the person that failure to answer the question without reasonable excuse would constitute an offence; and

(b) warn the person about the effect of section 59A .

(2) It is not an offence for an individual to refuse to answer a question put by the inspector on the ground the question might tend to incriminate the individual, unless the individual was first given the warning mentioned in subsection (1) (b) .

(3) Nothing in this section prevents an inspector from obtaining and using evidence given to the inspector voluntarily by a person.
