59: Privilege against self-incrimination

You could also call this:

“You don't have to answer questions that might make you look guilty”

If someone asks you questions during an examination or inquiry under section 57, you don’t have to answer any question that might make you look guilty of doing something wrong. This is to protect you from saying something that could be used against you later.
