Councillors may sign documents, take declarations, confirm signatures and give certificates.
Councillors may
- act as a witness to another person's signature on a document
- take a written declaration
- sign documents confirming anything that they know to be true, for example, certifying that passport photographs are a true likeness of the person or that a document is a true copy of an original
- sign documents expressing their opinion, for example, that someone is fit to hold a position or be granted a licence or certificate.
Fee
There is no cost for these services.
