93 Events or matters occurring before admission or registration
If an event or matter occurred before a person was first admitted to the Australian legal profession or first registered as a foreign lawyer, the designated local regulatory authority may decide to take no action under this Part in connection with the event or matter if—
(a) the person disclosed the event or matter to the designated local regulatory authority in an application for a compliance certificate or for a declaration of early assessment of suitability for a compliance certificate or in his or her first application for an Australian registration certificate; or
(b) the designated local regulatory authority is satisfied that it is appropriate to do so given the passage of time and any other circumstances the designated local regulatory authority considers relevant.
