INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT ACT 2002 - SECT 30

Surrender warrant may take effect at later date

  (1)   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.

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

  (a)   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;

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