You have rights under subparts 2 to 4, but these rights are not broken if something is done for a Royal commission, a commission of inquiry, a ministerial inquiry, or a statutory inquiry. This means you can do things for these inquiries without infringing on the rights given by subparts 2 to 4. You can find more information about subparts 2 to 4 here.
