(2) The Crown Court may make a certificate under this regulation if—
(a)it makes a domestic confiscation order in relation to property in the other member State, and
(b)it is satisfied that there is a good arguable case that the property—
(i)was used or was intended to be used for the purposes of an offence, or
(ii)is the proceeds of an offence.
(3) A certificate under this regulation is a certificate which—
(a)is made for the purposes of the 2006 Framework Decision, and
