 (1B) For paragraph (1A)(f), publications and any other goods advocate the doing of a terrorist act if they:
 (a) directly or indirectly counsel, promote, encourage or urge the doing of a terrorist act; or
 (b) directly or indirectly provide instructions on the doing of a terrorist act; or
 (c) directly praise the doing of a terrorist act in circumstances where there is a substantial risk that such praise might have the effect of leading a person (regardless of his or her age or any mental impairment (within the meaning of section 7.3 of the Criminal Code) that the person might suffer) to engage in a terrorist act.
 (1C) For paragraph (1A)(f), publications and any other goods do not advocate the doing of a terrorist act if they depict or describe a terrorist act, but the depiction or description could reasonably be considered to be done merely as part of public discussion or debate or as entertainment or satire.

 (a) the purposes for which the goods are to be imported; and
 (b) the extent to which the person to whom any permission to import the goods would be granted conducts activities of an artistic or educational, or of a cultural or scientific, nature to which the goods relate; and
 (c) the reputation of the person referred to in paragraph (b), both generally and in relation to an activity referred to in that paragraph; and
 (d) the ability of that person to meet conditions that may be imposed under subregulation (3) in relation to the goods; and
 (e) any other relevant matters.
 (2A) The responsible Minister may, by instrument in writing, appoint a person to be an authorised person for the purposes of subregulation (2).
 (3) A permission under this regulation shall be subject to such conditions imposing requirements or prohibitions on the person to whom the permission is granted with respect to the custody, use, reproduction, disposal, destruction or exportation of the goods, or with respect to accounting for the goods, as the responsible Minister or an authorised person thinks necessary to ensure that the goods are not used otherwise than for the purpose for which the permission is granted.
