for registration under this section.

Notification about amending application

 (5A) Before the Registrar has decided whether or not to accept the claim for registration, he or she may notify the applicant that the application may be amended under the Federal Court Rules.

Test for registration

 (6) The Registrar must accept the claim for registration if the claim satisfies all of the conditions in:
 (a) section 190B (which deals mainly with the merits of the claim); and
 (b) section 190C (which deals with procedural and other matters).
In any other case, the Registrar must not accept the claim for registration.

Note: The fact that the Registrar is considering the claim under this section does not mean that the application cannot be amended: see subsection 64(3).

Effect of withdrawal etc. of application

 (7) If:
 (a) before the Registrar has decided whether or not to accept the claim for registration; or
 (b) after the Registrar has decided to accept the claim for registration but before the Registrar has included details of the claim in the Register of Native Title Claims;
the Registrar is notified under section 189 or 189A of a decision or determination to the effect that the application has been dismissed or otherwise finalised, or is notified that the application has been withdrawn, the Registrar must not:
 (c) decide whether or not to accept the claim for registration; or
 (d) enter the details in the Register;
as the case requires.
