10 Consent not in English
If a consent to the intended marriage of a minor produced to the person solemnising the marriage is written in a language other than English, the person must, before solemnising the marriage, attach to the consent a translation of the consent into English that complies with section 11.
Note: As the translation is attached to the consent, it will be forwarded with the consent to the appropriate registering authority for a marriage etc.: see subparagraph 50(4)(a)(i) and paragraph 80(4)(b) of the Act.
