         (b) the Requested State so consents.  A request for the consent of the Requested State under this Article shall be accompanied by the documents stipulated in Article IX and, if applicable, any additional information it may have for the purpose of correcting omissions or deficiencies in the documentation.

Once the person sought has been surrendered to the Requesting State by the Requested State, the first shall not surrender the person to a third State for an offence committed before the date of surrender of the person, unless:
         (a) the Requested State gives its consent to the surrender of the person. In giving its consent, the Requested State may request from the Requesting State the production of the documents mentioned in Article IX; or
         (b) the person departs the territory of the Requesting State after the extradition and then returns voluntarily to that State; or
         (c) the person voluntarily remains in the territory of the Requesting State for more than 45 days after being at liberty to leave.
