Statute overview

About this statute

These Rules may be cited by the stated amendment title and must be read together with the principal Rules. Rule 4 of the principal Rules is amended: the phrase about using “the forms prescribed” is deleted and replaced with “Forms I, II and III, as applicable, set out”. The principal Rules are amended by deleting rule 5 and replacing it with a new rule, which is not shown here. The listed registrars must issue a birth or death certificate in Form IV or V when a person applies for one, and they may issue a shortened birth certificate in Form VII if the applicant wants the shortened form. The principal Rules are amended by deleting Part VI and replacing it with new provisions for registration of births.
