The Secretary may refuse to register or may reject a document submitted to the Secretary if the Secretary considers the document—

contains matter contrary to law, or

contains matter that is false or misleading in a material particular in the form or context in which it is included, or

does not comply with the requirements of this Act, or

contains an error, alteration or erasure, or

has been submitted by electronic transmission in a form that is not readily or satisfactorily accessible by the Secretary.

If the Secretary refuses to register or rejects a document under subsection (1), the Secretary may ask that—

the document be appropriately altered, or

a fresh document be submitted in its place, or

if the document has not been properly completed—a supplementary document in the approved form be submitted.
