notice required to attend before an investigating officer
to be asked questions relevant to the investigation
those questions need not be specified in the notice.
Clauses 7 and 8 make a number of related

dealings by a suspected person with property held by him
or by a third party on his behalf.

Clause 7 amends section 14A
(a) to make it clear that a notice issued by the
Commissioner under that section to a suspect
will, unless it otherwise provides, apply
also to the income from the property specified
in the notice; and
(b) to enable a notice to remain in force once
a prosecution has commenced, until proceedings
on the prosecution are finalized (as is
presently the case with restraining orders
under section 14C) and, if a confiscation
or monetary penalty order is made on
conviction, until that order is complied
with.
