Even though the meaning of document is not limited only to a paper document,in so far as ocean bills of lading are concerned,the Australian bills of lading legislation may cover bills of lading in paper form since the law requires them to be signed .
As already noted,the English court has held that the database of a computer is a document for the purposes of the High Court rules.This,however,may not satisfy the requirement of ‘writing’.Since the definition of ‘writing’ in the Interpretation Act 1978 (UK) includes ‘typing,printing,lithography,photography and other modes of representing or reproducing words in visible form’,an electronic message itself is not visible and cannot be included in the meaning of ‘writing’.Therefore,if a document is required to be written,such an electronic message is not a document.One observer presents a view that since electronic communication is more common,the word ‘document’ should be more generously construed .
The Model law expressly gives electronic transmissions the same legal status as writings.Article 5 provides that where a rule of law (national laws) requires information to be in writing or to be presented in writing,or provides for certain consequences if it is not,a data message satisfies that rule if the information contained therein is accessible so as to be useable for subsequent reference.
2.1.3 Signature and other authentication
The most common form of authentication required by domestic and international law is a manual signature.The function of signature is very significant not only because it authenticates parties to a contract but also evidences an intention to be legally bound.Authentication of a transmission by a signature is an indication to the recipient and third parties of the origin of the document and the intention of the party who issues that document.
The Hamburg Rules provide for signature ‘in writing,printed in facsimile,perforated,stamped,in symbols,or made by any other mechanical or electronic means,if not inconsistent with the law of the country where the bill of lading is issued’.Most provisions of the Australian bills of lading legislation require a signature.
