This page is about a bill. That means that it's not the law yet, but some people want it to be the law. It could change quickly, and some of the information is just a draft.
This part of the proposed law says that if you are asked to give information or documents under section 54 of this bill, you will have the same rights as someone who is a witness in court. This means you can refuse to answer questions or provide documents in certain situations, just like a witness in court can. For example, you might be able to keep some information private if it would get you in trouble.
