This is a published version of the Royal Warrant so it may not reflect the formatting of the original.

Special Features

There is a black check mark after "Royal Warrant 2018."

There is no evidence of Queen Elizabeth II's signature. However, "Elizabeth" (not "Elizabeth R") is printed at the start of the instrument.

The day and month of the date are handwritten. The usual space for the regnal year was omitted, so it had to be squeezed into the space between lines.

This is an example of a Royal Warrant as legislation.

The Explanatory Memorandum and legislative provisions of this Royal Warrant are omitted from this Royal Warrant but can be seen in the second file attached to this record.
