Regulation 46 Persons unable to write

Where any document (including the declaration on opening an account, an application for withdrawal and any authority to receive the amount payable on a warrant) is required by the Director of Savings or by these Regulations to be signed by any person and that person is unable to write, it shall be sufficient for the purposes of these Regulations if the document is marked by that person in the presence of a witness in such manner as the Director of Savings may require.

Where an uncrossed warrant is made payable to a person who is unable to write, he shall, when he presents the warrant for payment, affix his mark to the receipt on the warrant in the presence of a person who is known to the paying officer, and who can identify the person applying for the money as the person named in the warrant.
