Section 7A Effect of admission or grant of facultyF1

(1)

Despite any provision made by the Public Notaries Acts, a person's entitlement to carry on an activity which is a notarial activity is to be determined in accordance with the Legal Services Act 2007.

(2)

Nothing in the Public Notaries Acts is to be regarded, for the purposes of paragraph 5(2) of Schedule 3 to the Legal Services Act 2007 (exempt persons in relation to notarial activities) as authorising a person to carry on such an activity.

(3)

For this purpose—

  • “the Public Notaries Acts” means this Act and the Public Notaries Act 1801;

  • “exempt person” and “notarial activity” have the same meaning as in the Legal Services Act 2007.
