(1) A police officer exercising the powers conferred by section 13 or by a search warrant may for the purposes of this Part ¾

(a) seize and detain, or make extracts from or copies of, books, papers and documents found during the course of the exercise of those powers;

(b) require a person to give, or cause to be given, to him such information as it is in the power of the person to give or cause to be given, as the case requires.

(2) Subject to subsection (3), a person who ¾

(a) without lawful excuse, does not comply with a requirement made to him under subsection (1); or

(b) in purporting to comply with a requirement made to him under subsection (1), gives or causes to be given to the police officer concerned information that to his knowledge is false or misleading in a material particular,

commits a simple offence.

(3) Notwithstanding anything in subsection (2), a person shall not refuse or fail to comply with a requirement made to him under subsection (1) by reason only that compliance with that requirement would tend to incriminate him or render him liable to any penalty, but the information given or caused to be given by him in compliance with that requirement is not admissible in evidence in any proceedings against him for an offence other than a simple offence under subsection (2) (b).
