The acts taken by the authorities of the collectivity are enforceable by operation of law as soon as they have been published in the Official Journal of Saint-Martin, posted or notified to the interested parties and sent to the State representative. However, the acts mentioned in article LO 6351-2 may not come into force until fifteen days have elapsed from their transmission to the State representative.
Publication or display of these acts is also organised, on a complementary but non-exclusive basis, in digital form.
The President of the Territorial Council certifies, under his responsibility, the enforceability of these acts.
The transmission of the acts mentioned in this article may be carried out by any means, including by electronic means in accordance with procedures laid down by decree in the Conseil d’Etat.
Proof of receipt of documents by the State representative may be provided by any means. The acknowledgement of receipt, which is issued immediately, may be used for this purpose but is not a condition of the enforceability of the acts.
