123B: Documents to be produced by tenant to chief executive if required
or “The boss can ask you to show them certain papers about your rental home, if they need to see them.”

You could also call this:

“The boss can look at, write notes about, and make copies of papers people give them.”

When you give a document to the chief executive as required by section 123A or section 123B, they have certain powers. The chief executive can look at the document and make records of what they see. They can also make copies of the whole document or just parts of it. This helps the chief executive to review and keep track of important information that you provide.
