Who is responsible for paying the noting charges imposed by the Notary Public when an endorsed bill is dishonoured?
Explanation
Noting charges are fees paid to the Notary Public for formally recording the dishonour of a bill when it is presented for payment. These charges must be paid by the party responsible for the dishonour, which is typically the drawee. While the drawer or endorser may initially pay these charges, they are ultimately recoverable from the drawee. The holder of the bill is entitled to receive payment but does not bear the noting charges. Therefore, the correct answer is the individual responsible for dishonour.
