Reproductions may also be subject to the following conditions:
- "[c]onsent is not required for a representation that is not capable of misleading. However, the legislation places an obligation on those wanting to make the representation to ensure that it is not capable of misleading the public into believing it is a genuine banknote."
- "[The designer's] "right of integrity" is a right not to have the banknote subjected to derogatory treatment. Derogatory treatment would include doing anything that is prejudicial to the author's honour or reputation."
