 (2) If the chief executive officer (however described) of an entity is given a notice under subsection (1), he or she must ensure that it is complied with as soon as practicable after it is given.
 (3) The chief executive officer (however described) of an entity is not excused from ensuring that a notice given to him or her under subsection (1) is complied with on the ground that giving information covered by the notice would contravene the provisions of any other enactment.
