Signing of statements
15 Signing of statements
A statement lodged with the Commissioner under this Act shall be deemed to be signed by a person who is required to sign the statement if —
in the case of an individual, it is signed on his behalf by a person authorised in writing to so sign the statement; or
in the case of a corporation, it is signed by a director or manager or the secretary of the corporation.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, where the Commissioner is satisfied that it is not practicable to obtain the signature of a person required by this Act to sign a statement, the Commissioner may accept the statement for registration without its being signed by that person, but a person is not relieved of the requirement to sign a statement and a statement not signed by any person is not, by reason only of its registration under this Act, evidence relating to that person’s interest in a business.
