        (1)         The governing authority of a non-Government school, or proposed non-Government school, or a person authorised by the governing authority may apply to the Board for approval of the school for the enrolment of full fee paying overseas students.

        (2)         An application for approval under this section—

            (a)         must be made in a manner and form determined by the Board; and

            (b)         the school has made suitable arrangements to ensure compliance with the code of conduct approved by the Minister under section 72IB,

the Board must, by endorsement of the registration of the school, approve the school for the enrolment of full fee paying overseas students for such period as it thinks fit.

        (4)         The Board may impose such conditions on the registration of a non-Government school that is approved under this section as it thinks necessary—

        (5)         The Board may, at any time on the application of the school concerned, vary or revoke a condition imposed on the registration of a school under subsection (4) or extend the period of approval.

        (6)         Where the Board decides—

            (a)         to refuse an application under this section; or

            (b)         to grant an application subject to conditions; or

            (c)         to limit the period of approval,

it must, within one month after making that decision, inform the applicant in writing of its reasons for making the decision.

        (7)         An application for approval under this section may be dealt with at the same time as an application for registration under Division 2.
