<Text>This section provides that, where a designated officer wants to check the tax position of a person (or class of persons) but does not know their identity, the designated officer may give a notice to another person requiring them to produce a document or provide information.  The tribunal must have approved the giving of the notice beforehand and can only do so if it is satisfied that certain conditions are met.</Text>
