Section 212(1)(c) requires a demonstrable and reasoned formation of opinion based on cogent, relevant circumstances before an investigation is assigned to SFIO. The statutory order itself must disclose the material considered and the basis for both the investigation and its assignment; later committee minutes, affidavits, or investigation material cannot cure a deficient order.

The SFIO investigation order and consequential proceedings, including the prosecution complaint, were quashed.
