English translation

When the registrar has received the application and is of opinion that the application is correct under Section 114, that the regulations are correct under Section 112, that the objects accord with Section 110 and are not contrary to law or to the good morals of the people, and are not dangerous to the peace of the people or to the security of the State, that the particulars entered in the application or in the regulations conform to the objects of the foundation, and that the persons who are to be directors of the foundation have a standing and conduct suitable for carrying out the objects of the foundation, the registrar shall register the foundation, issue a certificate of registration to it and publish the establishment of the foundation in the Government Gazette.

If the registrar is of opinion that the application or the regulations are not correct under Section 114 or Section 112, or that the particulars entered in the application or in the regulations do not conform to the objects of the foundation, or that the persons who are to be directors of the foundation do not have a standing or conduct suitable for carrying out the objects of the foundation, the registrar shall order the applicant to correct or alter them. When they have been correctly corrected or altered, the registrar shall register the foundation and issue a certificate of registration to it.

If the registrar is of opinion that registration cannot be accepted because the objects of the foundation do not accord with Section 110, or are contrary to law or to the good morals of the people, or may be dangerous to the peace of the people or to the security of the State, or because the applicant has not corrected or altered them within thirty days from the day on which the registrar's order came to his knowledge, the registrar shall order that registration be refused and shall without delay notify the applicant of the order together with the reasons for the refusal.

The applicant has the right to appeal against the order refusing registration to the Minister of Interior, in writing submitted to the registrar within thirty days from the day on which notice of the order refusing registration was received.

The Minister of Interior shall decide the appeal and notify the appellant of the decision within ninety days from the day on which the registrar received the written appeal. The decision of the Minister of Interior is final.
