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

Part 10—Enforcement in Australia of reparation orders made and fines imposed by ICC

153 Registration of order

If the DPP applies to a court for registration of an order in accordance with an authorisation under section 151 or 152, the court must register the order and must direct the DPP to publish notice of the registration in the manner and within the period that the court considers appropriate.

An order is to be registered in a court in the same way as the court registers an order made by another Australian court.

Subject to subsection 154 (3), a faxed copy of an authenticated copy of an order is, for the purposes of subsection (2) of this section, taken to be the same as the authenticated copy.

154 Effect of order

An order referred to in section 151 that is registered in a court has effect, and may be enforced, as if it were an order for the payment of money made by the court at the time of the registration.

An order referred to in section 152 that is registered in a court has effect, and may be enforced, as if it were an order imposing a fine made by the court at the time of the registration.

A registration effected by registering a faxed copy of an authenticated copy of an order ceases to have effect after 21 days unless the authenticated copy of the order has been filed by then in the court that registered the order.
