Catchment and Land Protection Act 1994

If all of the members of the board of an Authority for the time being see a document setting out a resolution and a majority of those members sign a document containing a statement that they are in favour of a resolution in the terms set out in the document, a resolution in those terms is deemed to have been passed at a meeting of the board held on the day on which the document is signed or, if the members do not sign it on the same day, on the day on which the last member to sign signs the document.

If a resolution is deemed under subsection (1) to have been passed at a meeting of the board of an Authority, each member of the board must be advised as soon as practicable and given a copy of the terms of the resolution.

For the purposes of subsection (1), 2 or more separate documents containing a statement in identical terms, each of which is signed by one or more members of the board of an Authority, are deemed to constitute one document.
