I, Tony Smith, identity card no. 12345, authorise my daughter Mary Smith, identity card no. 45678, to act on my behalf (on/in) any matter related to mobile phone 789056.
1. Is a preposition needed? If so, do I use 'in' or 'on'?
2. Are there any errors in the sentence?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks, Fido.
Is 'act on my behalf' wrong?

@tanguatlay,

on/in any matter related to mobile phone 789056.
You can use either 'on' or 'in' in the underlined position, MsTan.
@JTT,
Yup, both are acceptable; they both "mean" the same.
