12 Application to dispense with consent
An application under section 15 of the Act to dispense with the consent of a person to a proposed marriage of a minor must be accompanied by: (a) unless it is impracticable to obtain the minor’s birth certificate—the minor’s birth certificate; and (b) if consent to the proposed marriage has been given by, or in place of, any other person whose consent to the marriage is required by the Act—that consent; and (c) if that consent is written in a language other than English—a translation of the consent into English that complies with section 11.
