Abstract

It shall be lawful for the President of the State in all State grants and leases of land to cause signature thereto to be attached by means of a stamp of facsimile of his sign manual and those grants and leases shall have the same effect as grants and leases bearing the actual autograph or sign manual of the President. All grants or leases shall be countersigned by the Commissioner of Lands who shall also be present at the time of signature by the President as described above. Forgery or counterfeiting of the signature is declared an offence. (4 sections)
