also thought of "responsible person", but I looked up guarantor in several online dictionaries, or together with the word "document" but it didn't seem to be used at all that way. A Guarantor guarantees something. Does not make much sense to guarantee a document.

guarantor


Explanation:
Garant v danom kontexte je oprávnený robiť zmeny a je zodpovedný za zmeny v dokumentácii / dokumentoch ministerstva a ručí za to, že zmeny v oficiálnej dokumentácii, resp. dokumentoch ministerstva sú v poriadku. Preto sa nemusí jednať o kontrolóra alebo nejakého dozerajúceho pracovníka aj keď význam je podobný - je to garant a myslím si, že sa môže použiť termím "guarantor", čo možno lepšie vystuihuje podstatu.

Example sentence(s):
  • President Ivan Gasparovic will be the guarantor of the agreement between the Slovak Association of Towns and Villages (ZMOS) and Ministry
  • Guarantors of the Conference: Doc. ... Ministry of Labour, Social Affairs and Family of the SR ... Ministry of Interior - Headquarters IRS, the CR
