Is a compliance plate required?

If I was to buy a registered imported car can I re-register it if it does not have a compliance plate?
If the vehicle had been registered without such a plate, wouldn't a law have been broken by someone?
If a seller knowingly sold a registered car without a compliance plate wouldn't is be a good idea for the seller to state that fact before selling it?

In WA I know of a previous importation system, where vehicles were legally registered without a compliance plate, though they also got a "condition" on their licence papers stating that the car was an "imported vehicle and exempt from a compliance plate".

Yes, but this vehicle is less than 15 years old.

Hi,
My car doesn't have a comp plate, so it's got a bit of paper from the RTA that says the vehicle is allowed on the roads with a NSW rego plate.

Hi,
It's a 1973 Celica GT. It was brought into Oz for GT evaluation by AMI, and also was in a few demos and as a static display, and then put into storage for a few years. It was released for sale, along with said compliance-paper in May 1982.

OK, but this vehicle in question is 1991, therefore I thought it is subject to being complied.

Hi,
Sorry I can't help with regards to a 1991 model. I'm still confused about the 15y rule! 
However, I wish to put on personal number-plates, but the document I got for complinace specifies the plates that are currently on the car. So, I gotta find out if getting new plates requires a new doco or not.
