 Honourable Acting Crown Attorney: In subsection 5, line 10, "on the
 payment to him of the appropriate fees : I do not think the practice in these
 Corporations has been to get fees. May we make it "without payment and
 without proof of due execution." I do not know whether the certificate should be
 filed free of charge or on payment of the appropriate fees. The Government and
 certain Statutory Bodies do not pay.

 charge and without proof of due execution for the words on the payment to
