The text applies this principle to section 16 of the Foreign Exchange Regulation Act, noting that the prohibited act does not complete the offence unless permission is refused. It also states that adjudication is premature while an application for permission remains pending, because the statutory process has not concluded and the existence of contravention cannot yet be finally determined.
