  (c)   to produce to the Trust, within the period specified in the notice, specified documents that are relevant to the review.

  (2)   The Trust may give more than one such notice in relation to the review.

  (3)   If the deferring member fails to comply with a notice under subsection   (1), the Trust may, by written notice given to the deferring member, suspend the invalidity determination with effect from a specified day. The day must not be earlier than the day on which the notice was given.

  (4)   If the deferring member:

  (a)   submits himself or herself for medical examination in accordance with a notice under subsection   (1); and
