        (d)     a court order requires the holder of the licence to pay a sum of money by way of a fine, penalty, costs or restitution or any two of those things and—

        (g)     the holder of the licence has been convicted in another State or a Territory of the Commonwealth or another country of an offence which, if the person had been the holder of a licence or other authority in that State, Territory or country would have enabled the relevant authority in that State, Territory or country to suspend or cancel the person's licence or other authority; or

        (h)     the holder of the licence is disqualified from operating a personal watercraft in another country or the person's licence or other authority in that country has been cancelled because of a judgment, order or decision made under, or otherwise by operation of, the law of that country.
