Real Property Act 1886

Registrar-General may issue guidelines (the verification of authority guidelines) to be observed by a party to a transaction, or the legal practitioner or registered conveyancer representing a party to a transaction, where the party, practitioner or conveyancer is required under this

Act to verify his or her authority, or the authority of a party to the transaction, to enter into the transaction or to execute an instrument or document in connection with the transaction.

Registrar-General may from time to time cancel, vary or replace the verification of authority guidelines.

Registrar-General must ensure that current and superseded versions of the verification of authority guidelines are publicly available on a website maintained by the Registrar‑General and in any other manner the Registrar‑General considers appropriate.
