Dublin Docklands Development Authority (Dissolution) Act 2015

Admissibility in evidence of documents

13. (1) All books and other documents directed or authorised by or under any enactment to be kept by the Authority and which, immediately before the dissolution day, would be receivable in evidence shall, notwithstanding the dissolution of the Authority, be admitted in evidence on or after the dissolution day as fully as if this Act had not been enacted.

(2) Whenever an extract from or certificate of the contents of any book or other document directed or authorised by or under any enactment to be kept by the Authority would, if verified in a particular manner by a particular officer of the Authority, have been admissible immediately before the dissolution day as evidence of such contents, an extract from or certificate of the contents of such book or document shall, if verified in such particular manner by the Chief Executive or by an officer of the Council (whose official position it shall not be necessary to prove) authorised by the Chief Executive in that behalf, be admitted, on or after the dissolution day, as evidence of such contents to the same extent as such first-mentioned extract or certificate would have been so admitted if this Act had not been enacted.
