The 1938 legislation standardises the process for making statutory declarations in Ireland. It outlines the framework for individuals to formally assert facts in various legal and administrative contexts without the need for swearing an oath. This Act aims to enhance legal integrity and streamline bureaucratic procedures by clearly defining who is authorised to witness such declarations and the specific form these declarations must take. By providing a consistent mechanism for affirming statements, it supports both transparency and accountability in official matters, reflecting the evolving legal standards of the time.
