EXECUTION OF FORMAL DOCUMENTS
Difficulty has been experienced by members of the forces, more particularly those in remote places, and by prisoners of war through inability to comply with the law in regard to the verification ot the proper execution of instruments and formal documents. It has been impossible in many instances for a witness or person executing flic instruments to coinply with tbe requirements of the exis« ing law—-that is, to appear before the British Minister or Consul in lo.reigu countries or before a notary public Hl other parts of tho Empire.. Amended Evidence Emergency Regulations gazetted last night provide that the execution o£ such documents may now be deemed to be duly authenticated if they are signed before an officer of field rank or before * legal staff officer.
