        (1)         An application for the revocation of the registration of an order under section 176 may be made to the Court by —

            (a)         the CEO; or

            (b)         the child concerned; or

            (c)         a parent of the child concerned; or

            (d)         a party to the proceeding in the Children’s Court in the sending State in which the decision to transfer the order or proceeding (as the case requires) was made.

        (2)         The registrar of the Court must cause a copy of an application made under subsection (1) to be given as soon as possible to —

            (a)         the relevant interstate officer; and

            (b)         any person by whom the application could have been made.

        (3)         The Court may only revoke the registration of an order if satisfied that it was inappropriately registered because, under the interstate law —

            (a)         the decision or order to transfer the child protection order or the order to transfer the child protection proceeding (as the case requires) was at the time of registration subject to appeal or review or a stay; or

            (b)         the time for instituting an appeal or seeking a review had not expired.

        (4)         If the registration of an order is revoked, the registrar of the Court must cause the copy of the order filed under section 175 to be sent to the Children’s Court in the sending State.

        (5)         The revocation of the registration of an order does not prevent the later re-registration of that order.
