(1) In addition to the application submitted to the authority in accordance with these regulations, the applicant shall provide a declaration signed by him confirming that all the contents of the application submitted by him are correct, and that no other relevant facts, information or documentation have been omitted, which if known by the authority would have led to the rejection of the application.

(a) in cases where the authority became aware of such false declaration prior to the finalisation of the application process and the publication of the deed, the application shall be revoked and all fees and expenses shall be paid by the applicant; or

(b) in cases where the authority became aware of such false declaration following the finalisation of the application process and the publication of the deed, the authority shall have the right to act in accordance with regulation 20(3).
