"No application for an order for financial relief shall be made under this part of the Act, [that is after an overseas divorce] unless the leave of the court has been obtained in accordance with rules of court."
I will move in a moment to what section 16 says.
(d):"Any financial benefit which the applicant has received by virtue of the PNA."
"Any right which the applicant has or has had to apply for financial relief from the other party to the marriage under the law of any country outside England and Wales and if the applicant has omitted to exercise that right, the reason for that omission."
