(2) Where an inspector appointed under this section to investigate the affairs of a society thinks it necessary for the purpose of his investigation to investigate also the affairs of any other society or body corporate which is or has at any relevant time been associated with the first-mentioned society, he may, with the approval of the Registrar, do so, and shall report to the Registrar on the affairs of the associated society or body corporate to such extent as he thinks the results of his second or further investigation are relevant to his investigation of the affairs of the first-mentioned society.
