Nor can the mediator and the parties be compelled to produce a document prepared or obtained in the course of the mediation process, unless the law requires its disclosure or unless its disclosure is necessary for the mediator to be able to defend against a claim of professional fault.

No information given or statement made in the course of the mediation process may be admitted in evidence in proceedings referred to in the second paragraph.
