(a) If the CBB's objectives for making further enquiries are predominantly for the purposes of fact finding; i.e. gathering historic information or evidence for determining whether enforcement action may be appropriate, the CBB's information gathering and investigation powers under Part 7 of the CBB Law are likely to be more effective and more appropriate than appointing an expert.

(b) If the CBB's objectives include obtaining expert analysis or recommendations (or both) for say, the purposes of seeking remedial action, it may be appropriate to appoint an expert instead of or in conjunction with the CBB's other available powers.
