more prohibitions in force for the purposes of subsection 9K(1) or (3) that are subject to conditions:
 (i) if those prohibitions cover imports—that any imports into Australia of the biological by, or on behalf of the applicant, will not contravene those conditions; and
 (ii) if those prohibitions cover exports—that any exports from Australia of the biological by, or on behalf of the applicant, will not contravene those conditions; and
 (l) any other matter prescribed by regulations made for the purposes of this paragraph.

Manufacturing steps outside Australia
 (5) Subject to subsection (7), if one or more steps in the manufacture of the biological have been carried out outside Australia, the Secretary must certify, or refuse to certify, that the manufacturing and quality control procedures used in each such step are acceptable.
Note: See also subsections 32EA(5), (7A) and (7B) and section 32EB in relation to conditions and certifications for the manufacture of a biological outside Australia after the biological is included in the Register.
 (6) In deciding whether so to certify for the purposes of subsection (5), the matters that may be taken into account include:
 (a) whether the applicant has provided:
 (i) if a step in the manufacture of the biological has been carried out in a country that is a member of the European Community or a member of EFTA—an EC/EFTA attestation of conformity in relation to the biological; or
 (ii) if a step in the manufacture of the biological has been carried out in a country declared by the Minister under section 3B to be covered by a non‑EC/EFTA MRA—a non‑EC/EFTA attestation of conformity, for the non‑EC/EFTA MRA, in relation to the biological; or
 (iii) in any other case—an acceptable form of evidence from a relevant overseas authority establishing that the manufacture of the biological is of an acceptable standard; and
 (b) whether the applicant has agreed to provide, if the Secretary considers inspection of the manufacturing procedures used in the manufacture of the biological to be necessary:
 (i) funds for the carrying out of that inspection by, or on behalf of, the Secretary; and
 (ii) evidence that the manufacturer has agreed to such an inspection; and
 (c) whether the applicant has complied with any requirements made by the Secretary under section 32JA in relation to the manufacture of the biological.
 (7) If:
 (a) one or more steps in the manufacture of the biological have been carried out outside Australia; and
 (b) had the biological been manufactured in Australia, it would have been exempt from the operation of Part 3‑3 because of the operation of subsection 34(1);
subsection (5) of this section does not apply in relation to those steps.
