The Court of Appeal held that natural love and affection constitutes 'sufficient consideration' for the purposes of s 52(1)(a)(v) of the Confiscation Act 1997. The Court held that 'reasonable suspicion' under s 52(1)(a)(iii) must be assessed by reference to a reasonable person in the applicant's circumstances, not any reasonable person. The majority held that an exclusion order under s 52(1) excludes the entire property from forfeiture, not merely the applicant's interest (Neave JA dissenting on this point).
