This comment seems to have been overlooked from a few pages back.

Assuming you read article 5 as Wynne's permanent nationality (NZ) is not reliant on residence (living continuously in NZ), article 6 would be the applicable article based on the above, right?

Wynne's permanent nationality for FIFA purposes is SA, not NZ.

Where do you get this from? As far as I can see the term "nationality" isn't defined in the statute (I may have missed this though), so his nationality could be considered to be NZ since he is a citizen here and has a passport

If that was the case, sections 6 and 7 would be redundant. Permanent nationality is the one acquired at birth.
