92 Property not owned by respondent available for forfeiture
(1) The court that is hearing an application under section 91 may
declare that property specified in the application that is not owned
by the respondent is available for forfeiture under this Part (whether
or not the property is subject to a restraining order under this Act) to
satisfy the respondent's liability to the Territory under Part 6 if it is
more likely than not:
(a) that the respondent effectively controlled the property at the
time that the application was made for a declaration under
Part 6; or
(b) that the respondent had given the property away at a time
before the application was made for a declaration under
Part 6.
(2) The property mentioned in subsection (1) is presumed to have been
effectively controlled by the respondent or to have been given away
by the respondent at the material time unless the respondent
establishes the contrary.
(3) If a court makes a declaration under this section, the court may
make any necessary or convenient ancillary orders.
