|
| |
(c) in the case of a determination by a relevant authority which is an administrative authority, a document establishing that the determination was subject to review by a court or tribunal but is no longer so subject because that court or tribunal has made a final decision and has dismissed the appeal or because the appeal has been withdrawn or because the time within which an appeal should be lodged has expired; and
|
| |
(d) documents establishing that the determination is enforceable in the Convention Country and that the person against whom enforcement is sought has received notice of the determination in due time.
|
| |

|
| |
(3) For the purposes of this Part—

|
| |
(4) A document purporting to be a copy of a determination given by a relevant authority shall be deemed to be duly certified if—

|
| |
(b) in the case of a determination by a relevant authority other than a court, it purports to be certified by a person in his capacity as an officer of that authority to be a true copy of a determination made by that authority.
