Commentary on provisions of Act Section 7: Immunity from prosecution
Sections 7 to 12 insert new sections 304A to 304H into AFA 2006. These create a statutory framework for immunity from prosecution, restrictions on the use of evidence and sentence reductions for offenders who co-operate in investigations and prosecutions. They make provision equivalent to the provision in sections 71 to 75 of the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005 which applies to the civilian criminal justice system.
