(2) An authorised officer may, subject to any regulations, grant licences for the export of arms and ammunition not intended for use for warlike purposes to any place specified in the licence; except that before granting the licence, the authorised officer shall satisfy himself that the arms and ammunition are not intended for disposal in any way contrary to the provisions of the Convention.
