1. These Regulations may be cited as the Commissioners for Oaths (Prescribed Bodies) Regulations 1995 and shall come into force on 31st July 1995.

Dated 4th July 1995
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations recognise the Institute of Legal Executives as a prescribed body for the purposes of section 113 of the Courts and Legal Services Act 1990 and thus empower members of that Institute to act as commissioners for oaths.
1990 c. 41. Section 119(1) is an interpretation provision and is cited because of the meanings assigned to the words "member" and "prescribed".
