174. Seal of the Institute

Official English translation. Where it differs from the Sinhala or Tamil text, the Act itself says which text prevails.

(1)

The seal of the Institute –

(a)

shall be in the custody of such person as the Institute

Board may determine from time to time;

(b)

may be altered in such manner as may be determined by the Institute Board; and

(c)

shall not be affixed to any instrument or document except with the sanction of the Institute Board and in the presence of the Chairperson and one other member of the Institute Board who shall sign the instrument or document in token of their presence:

Provided however, where the Chairperson is unable to be present at the time when the seal of the

Institute is affixed to any instrument or document, any other member of the Institute Board authorised in writing by the Chairperson in that behalf shall be competent to sign such instrument or document in accordance with the preceding provisions of this subsection.

The Institute shall maintain a register of the instruments and documents to which the seal of the Institute has been affixed.
