The Authority may register an applicant as a combatant of a specified registration class if the Authority is satisfied of the following—

that the application is made in accordance with this Division and any application fee has been paid,

that the applicant is a fit and proper person to be registered as a combatant of that class,

that the applicant is not less than the minimum age prescribed by this Act, the regulations or the rules as the minimum age required for registration as a combatant of that class,

if the applicant is subject to a registration pre-condition, that the applicant has complied with the registration pre-condition,

as to any other matter prescribed by the regulations for the purposes of this subsection.

The Authority must refuse to register an applicant as a combatant of a specified registration class if—

it is not satisfied of the matters specified in subsection (1), or

the applicant is a controlled member of a declared organisation under the Crimes (Criminal Organisations Control) Act 2012, or

it is of the opinion that it is not in the interests of the health or safety of the person to grant the registration, or

at the time the application is being determined, the applicant is registered for 1 or more other registration classes of combatant and the applicant’s registration for the other class or classes is suspended, or

in the Authority’s opinion, it would be contrary to the public interest to grant the registration, or

in any other circumstances prescribed by the regulations for the purposes of this section.

Subsection (2) does not limit the grounds on which the Authority may refuse to register an applicant as a combatant of a specified registration class.

The Authority is not required to determine an application for registration if the Authority is not satisfied as to the identity of the applicant for registration or if the applicant fails, without reasonable excuse, to provide any relevant information requested by the Authority.
