Section 30.12 — Competition Act: Report

A person designated under paragraph 30.11(2)(c) in an order made under subsection 30.11(1) shall make a report to the judge who made the order, or another judge of the same court, accompanied by a transcript of every examination held under the order; a general description of every record or thing produced to the person under the order and, if the judge so requires, a record or thing itself; and a copy of every statement given under subsection 30.11(9) of the reasons for a refusal to answer any question or to produce any record or thing. The person designated under paragraph 30.11(2)(c) shall send a copy of the report to the Minister of Justice promptly after it is made. If any reasons contained in a statement given under subsection 30.11(9) are based on the Canadian law of non-disclosure of information or privilege, a judge to whom a report is made shall determine whether those reasons are well-founded and, if the judge determines that they are, that determination shall be mentioned in any order that the judge makes under section 30.13, but if the judge determines that they are not, the judge shall order that the person named in the order made under subsection 30.11(1) answer the questions or produce the records or things. A copy of every statement given under subsection 30.11(9) that contains reasons that purport to be based on a law that applies to the foreign state shall be appended to any order that the judge makes under section 30.13.
