Royal Warrant These can be purely administrative in nature (e.g., Warrants authorizing the use of the Great Seal) or they can be substantive instruments (e.g., Warrants of appointment). They are signed by the Monarch and (usually) countersigned by a Minister of the Crown. Transcript A transcript of the document. Right Trusty and Well-beloved Counsellor We greet you well!
