#### 30 Surrender warrant may take effect at later date
(1) This section applies if, apart from this subsection, the Attorney‑General would be required to issue a surrender warrant for a crime within the jurisdiction of the ICC in respect of a person who is liable to be detained in a prison because of a sentence of imprisonment imposed for a different offence against Australian law.
(2) The Attorney‑General may, after consultation with the ICC, do either of the following:
(a) instead of issuing a surrender warrant that has an immediate effect, issue a surrender warrant that is to come into effect when the person ceases to be liable to be detained;
(b) issue a surrender warrant that has a temporary operation in accordance with conditions agreed with the ICC.
