Fabricating minutes is a criminal offence



I chanced upon a number of websites which says that altering minutes is a criminal offence. Here is something I copied from one such site.

The altering or fabricating of minutes is a very serious issue. Not only is it a red flag about the integrity and honesty of some senior management, but it is a sure sign that the policies and procedures governing the control of minutes and other legal records are seriously lacking. Not to mention the fact that it is also a criminal offense.

“Falsifying documents” is a type of white collar crime. It involves altering, changing, or modifying a document for the purpose of deceiving another person. It can also involve the passing along of copies of documents that are known to be false.
