This subsection applies in respect of a copy of—
a designation under section 56 (designation of an area as subject to additional licensing), or
a designation under section 80 (designation of an area as subject to selective licensing),
which purports to be made by a local housing authority.
A certificate endorsed on such a copy and purporting to be signed by the proper officer of the authority stating the matters set out in subsection (3) is prima facie evidence of the facts so stated without proof of the handwriting or official position of the person by whom it purports to be signed.
Those matters are—
that the designation was made by the authority,
that the copy is a true copy of the designation, and
that the designation did not require confirmation by the confirming authority, or that on a specified date the designation was confirmed by the confirming authority.
