the Attorney‑General is satisfied that a person has been convicted by the Tribunal of the Tribunal offence to which the order relates; and
the Attorney‑General is satisfied that the conviction and the order are not subject to further appeal in the Tribunal;
the Attorney‑General may, in writing, authorise a proceeds of crime authority to apply for the registration of the order.

complying with the request would prejudice Australia’s sovereignty, security or national interest; or
there are special circumstances justifying non‑compliance.
