Commissioners may frame award of enfranchisement.
21 & 22 Vict. c. 94.

22. In any case conducted before the Commissioners, when the amount of compensation has been duly ascertained, the Commissioners, having made such inquiries as to them shall seem fit, may frame an award of enfranchisement on the basis of such compensation, and in such form as they shall provide, and may confirm the same, and such confirmed award shall have the same force and validity as an award of enfranchisement under the Copyhold Act, 1858. And where the draft award has been perused by the steward, it shall not be necessary to serve a copy thereof upon the steward, as required by the last proviso to the tenth section of the Copyhold Act, 1858. But a copy of the award, sealed or stamped with the seal of the Commissioners, shall be sent by the Commissioners to the lord, who shall cause the same to be entered on the court rolls of the manor.
