Hi Glen,
This was the reply I got from my engineer when I asked the same question to him.
"I cannot find any evidence to suggest that the indicators need to be self-cancelling although it would be more practical"
I ended up using a 3 position ON/OFF/ON toggle switch.

Thanks Richard. That's the conclusion that I had arrived at (with some complimentary advice from Patrick).
I also had decided that an on/off/on switch would suit me adequately ....my Alfa's self-cancellation feature ceased working reliably decades ago, so I'm accustomed to having to manually cancel the turn indicators.
Which switch are you using?
Cheers!

Thanks Richard 
edit: So, it seems that there's enough lack of definitive information (??) from our State registration authorities regarding the need, or otherwise, to have self-cancelling turn indicators, so I'm going with a Cole Hersee on-off-on switch, which is similar in appearance to the battery isolator that I'm using on my dash panel. I might need to be prepared for some 'discussion' at registration time
Here's the Cole Hersee 24054 on-off-on ....
Cheers,
Glen

The Cole Hersee on-off-on switch for my direction indicators came in this morning...
That's another one ticked off the list 
Cheers,
Glen

Took me some time, but I found the rule about self cancelling:
Qld TMR inspection rules.
Reasons for rejection, From Page 10:
The turn signal switch is not readily operable by the driver from the driving position and, if fitted as original equipment by the manufacturer, is not self cancelling.

Hi Glen, my first car was an A40 Farina. The indicator was as you said in your uncles car and it was non time based auto canceling, maybe by clockwork and was was a plastic or possibly Bakelite handle
The one you have sourced looks more the business for a Cobra

Hi David.
The Cole Hersee switch - already purchased - is ideal for what I perceive my requirements to be.
I hope the inspector agrees .....and according to their documentation, I should be OK.
Cheers!
Glen
