An Act to facilitate compliance by Australia with obligations under the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, and for related purposes

Part 3 Requests by the ICC for arrest and surrender of persons

Division 4—Surrender of persons

30 Surrender warrant may take effect at later date

This section applies if, apart from this subsection, the Attorney-General would be required to issue a surrender warrant for a crime within the jurisdiction of the ICC in respect of a person who is liable to be detained in a prison because of a sentence of imprisonment imposed for a different offence against Australian law.

The Attorney-General may, after consultation with the ICC, do either of the following:

instead of issuing a surrender warrant that has an immediate effect, issue a surrender warrant that is to come into effect when the person ceases to be liable to be detained;

issue a surrender warrant that has a temporary operation in accordance with conditions agreed with the ICC.
