No person shall be excused from testifying or from producing any papers, books, accounts or documents in any investigation or inquiry or upon any hearing ordered by the Illinois Housing Development Authority when ordered to do so by the Illinois Housing Development Authority or by any member, officer, or employee of the Illinois Housing Development Authority, upon the ground that the testimony or evidence, documentary or otherwise, may tend to incriminate him or subject him to a penalty or forfeiture.
