Peace Commissioners are appointed under section 88 of the Courts of Justice Act, 1924. On the date of their appointment, Peace Commissioners are issued with a Warrant of Appointment which is signed and sealed by the Minister for Justice and Equality. As such Warrants are considered to be a unique document, it is not the practice to issue copies or replace those which have been lost or otherwise mislaid. In this case I have instructed my officials to write to the individual concerned to confirm his appointment to the Office of Peace Commissioner and to explain the situation regarding replacement documents.
