consolidated text (as at 2011, amended since). juris shows the text as it was consolidated; it does not confirm that this is the law in force today.
8. (1) If the suspect raises any objection to the interview being tape recorded
either at the outset or during the interview or during a break in the interview, the
officer shall explain the fact that the interview is being tape recorded and that
the suspect’s objections shall be recorded on tape.
(2) (a) When any objection has been recorded on tape or the suspect has
refused to have his objection recorded, the officer may turn off the recorder.
(b) In this eventuality he shall say that he is turning off the recorder and
give his reasons for doing so and then turn it off.
(3) The officer shall then make a written record of the interview.
(4) If, however, the officer reasonably considers that he may proceed to put
questions to the suspect with the tape recorder still on, he may do so.
