47. Commission may retain document

The Commission may take and retain for such duration as it deems necessary, possession of any document obtained under this Part.

The person who provided the document is entitled to be supplied, as soon as practicable, with a copy certified by the Commission to be a true copy of the document.

Notwithstanding the provisions of any other written law, the certified copy of the document shall be admissible as evidence as if it were the original document.

If the Commission is satisfied that the retaining of the document is no longer necessary, the Commission may, as soon as practicable, return the document to the person who provided the document.
