1580 - PREROGATIVE INSTRUMENTS ander the Public Seal of the Union, constitute and appoint any person to be his Deputy within the Union during such temporary absence,! and in that capacity to exercise, perform, and execute for and on behalf of the Governor-General during such absence, but no longer, all such powers and authorities vested in the Governor- General, as shall in and by such instrument be specified and limited, but no others. Every such Deputy shall conform to and observe all such instructions as the Governor-General shall from time to time address to him for his guidance. Provided, nevertheless, that by the appointment of a Deputy, as aforesaid, the power and authority of the Governor-General shall not be abridged, altered, or in any way affected, otherwise than We may at any time hereafter think proper to direct. Provided further that, if any such Deputy shall have been duly appointed, it shall not be necessary during the continuance in office of such Deputy for any person to assume the Government of the Union as Administrator thereof. VIL. And We do hereby require and command all Our Officers and Ministers, Civil and Military, and all other the inhabitants of the Union, to be obedient, aiding, and assisting unto the Governor- General, or, in the event of his death, incapacity, or absence, to such person or persons as may, from time to time, under the provisions of these Our Letters Patent, administer the Government of the Union. VIII. And We do hereby reserve to Ourselves, Our heirs and successors, full power and authority from time to time to revoke, alter, or amend these Our Letters Patent as to Us or them shall seem meet. IX. These Our Letters Patent shall be proclaimed at such place or places within the Union as the Governor-General shall think fit, and shall commence and come into operation on the day fixed by Our Proclamation for the establishment of the Union, whereupon the Letters Patent and Instructions described in the Schedule hereto, to the extent therein specified shall, without prejudice to anything lawfully done thereunder, be revoked. In witness whereof We have caused these Our Letters to be made Patent. Witness OQurself at Westminster this Twenty-ninth day of December, in the Ninth Year of Our Reign. By Warrant under the King’s Sign Manual, MUIR MACKENZIE ' The Act, 8. 11, only authorizes the appointment of a Deputy during the temporary absence of the Governor-General, presumably from the Union (not merely from the seat of Government), so that the provision in the latter case may rest on the prerocative.
