66.—(1) A supervisory authority may, by notice in writing to a person (“P”) who is (or was at any time) a relevant person, a payment service provider or a connected person, require P to—
(a)provide specified information, or information of a specified description;
(b)produce specified documents, or documents of a specified description; or
(c)attend before an officer of the supervisory authority (or of a supervisory authority which is acting on behalf of that authority) at a time and place specified in the notice and answer questions.
(2) The information or documents must be provided or produced—
(a)before the end of such reasonable period as may be specified; and
(b)at such place as may be specified.
(3) An officer who has authorisation in writing from a supervisory authority to do so may require P without unreasonable delay to—
(a)provide the officer with specified information or information of a specified description; or
(b)produce to the officer specified documents or documents of a specified description.
(4) The powers in this regulation may only be exercised by a supervisory authority, or by an officer authorised under paragraph (3) to act on behalf of the supervisory authority, in relation to information or documents which are reasonably required by the supervisory authority in connection with the exercise by the authority of any of its supervisory functions.
(5) Where a supervisory authority or an officer requires information to be provided or documents to be produced under paragraph (1) or (3), the notice must set out the reasons why the information is required to be provided or the documents produced, unless the supervisory authority or (as the case may be) the officer is not permitted to disclose this information.
(6) The supervisory authority may require—
(a)information contained in a computer or other storage device, or recorded in any other way otherwise than in legible form to be produced to it in legible form or in a form from which the information can readily be produced in visible and legible form; and
(b)any information provided under this regulation to be provided in such form as it may reasonably require.
(7) The production of a document does not affect any lien which a person has on the document.
(8) If a supervisory authority has power under this regulation to require a person to produce a document but it appears that the document is in the possession of a third person, that power may be exercised by the supervisory authority in relation to the third person.
