PROTECTION AGAINST SELF-INCRIMINATION (§ 60.2-628)

No person shall be excused from attending and testifying or from producing
books, papers, correspondence, memoranda, and other records before the
Commission in any cause or proceeding before the Commission, on the ground that
the testimony or evidence, documentary or otherwise, required of him may tend to
incriminate him or subject him to a penalty or forfeiture. However, no
individual shall be prosecuted or subjected to any penalty or forfeiture for or
on account of any transaction, matter, or thing concerning which he is
compelled, after having claimed his privilege against self-incrimination, to
testify or produce evidence, documentary or otherwise, except that such
individual so testifying shall not be exempt from prosecution and punishment for
perjury committed in so testifying.
