Text of the provision Official document
291 Further applications for compulsion order (1) The fact that a compulsion order has previously been sought or made in respect of a matter, whether or not the previous application or order related to the same person, does not prohibit— (a) the making of an application under section 289 for a compulsion order in respect of a matter; or (b) a Judge from making a compulsion order in respect of a matter. (2) Notwithstanding anything in this section, where a further application for a compulsion order is made in respect of a matter in relation to which a previous compulsion order application has been made, the Judge may refuse to make the order sought if he or she is satisfied that the further application is vexatious or an abuse of the process of the court.
