Article 109
Enforcement of fines and forfeiture measures
1. States Parties shall give effect to fines or forfeitures ordered by the Court under Part 7, without prejudice to the rights of bona fide third parties, and in accordance with the procedure of their national law.
2. If a State Party is unable to give effect to an order for forfeiture, it shall take measures to recover the value of the proceeds, property or assets ordered by the Court to be forfeited, without prejudice to the rights of bona fide third parties.
3. Property, or the proceeds of the sale of real property or, where appropriate, the sale of other property, which is obtained by a State Party as a result of its enforcement of a judgement of the Court shall be transferred to the Court.
This provision follows the ICC Statute.
The CAWCA 2000 incorporates procedures which currently exist under national law to implement any forfeiture orders imposed by the ICC. These allow the imposition of a monetary payment instead of a forfeiture where the rights of third parties mean that property cannot be forfeited. This power ensures that the goal of reparation to victims cannot be thwarted by third party interests, whilst taking into account those third parties with legitimate interests in the property.
