Thanks!

Thanks - I have that, but I only have access to the online version and it seems missing some parts. Under 5.2.4, section "Fast Offerings", it lists 7 items the last of which says

Essentially, it's an auditing and conflict-of-interest requirement. You always need two signers (not surprising), and the signers can't be the one receiving the assistance or related to the one being assisted. If you want the exact wording, you'll need to read it for yourself. We've been asked not to quote it on this forum.
