5.—(1) Subject to sub-paragraph (2), where the court receives a copy of an overseas restraint order sent by the Lord Advocate in accordance with paragraph 4, the court must consider giving effect to the order no later than the end of the next working day after the relevant day.

(2) In exceptional circumstances, the court may delay its consideration of the overseas restraint order, provided that it does consider giving effect to the order no later than the end of the fifth working day after the relevant day.

(b)without a hearing.

(4) The court must not consider giving effect to the overseas restraint order unless the Lord Advocate—

(a)is present; or

(b)has had a reasonable opportunity to make representations.

(5) The court may decide not to give effect to the overseas restraint order only if, in its opinion, giving effect to it would be—

(b)incompatible with any of the Convention rights (within the meaning of the Human Rights Act 1998).

(6) The court may postpone giving effect to an overseas restraint order in respect of any property—
