I understand the meaning of this but I'm not sure if there is a standard term for it in English. This is the heading of the document which goes on to give details of someone declaring that he shall bear the costs of his daughter's studies in the UK.
Thank you!

Reaffirmation of Financial Responsibility
Hello,
Isn't this a reaffirmation of the parent's acceptance to be financially responsible for child's education? It seems to me.
"Reconfirmation" is rarely used in English in such a context (It's fine when talking about "flight reconfirmations" LOL)
I hope this helps.
