32. Translation

Where an officer of the Commission finds, seizes, detains or takes possession of any book, document or record in the exercise of any power under this Act, and such book, document or record or any part thereof is in a language other than the national language or the English language, or in any sign or code, the officer may require the person who had possession, custody or control of such book, document or record to furnish to the officer a translation in the national language of such book, document or record within such period as, in the opinion of the officer, would be reasonable having regard to the length of the book, document or record, or other circumstances relating to it.

No person shall knowingly furnish a translation under subsection (1) which is not an accurate, faithful and true translation, or knowingly make a translation under that subsection which is not accurate, faithful and true.

Where the person required to furnish a translation under subsection (1) is not the person who is suspected to have committed the offence under investigation, the Commission may reimburse him for such reasonable expenses as he may have incurred in furnishing the translation.
