 (a) the integrity of the goods cannot be ensured; or
 (b) a condition of the export permit has been, or is likely to be, contravened; or
 (c) the requirements of this Act have not been complied with, or are not likely to be complied with before the goods are imported into the importing country; or
 (d) an importing country requirement relating to the goods will not be, or is not likely to be, met before the goods are imported into the importing country; or
