A training day for the Justice of the Peace (JP) was held at the Cranbourne Community Centre on Saturday 14 September.

About 40 JP and not sworn-in JP attend a training day. Training, presented by the trainers from The Royal Victorian Association of Honorary Justices, included the latest signing and attesting requirements.

Cranbourne MP Pauline Richards attended the day, shared morning tea and thanked all attending for the volunteer work of Honorary Justices.

Cranbourne Justice of the Peace Group carries out about 4000 signings a month in Cranbourne alone, the group secretary Gary Luxford said.

“In the City of Casey, a total of 8000 to 10,000 signings could be carried out,” he said.
