The record
Written by software from the 1 report below. The points restate them; where one says why it matters, that is Prism's reading, not a reported fact.
- The Department of Public Health has announced that September 26 is the final deadline to add missing names to birth certificates.
- This special extension applies to births registered without a name before 2010 and those exceeding the standard 15-year registration period.
- Parents and guardians must provide a written declaration to the registrar to complete this process.
- Once a child's name is registered, it cannot be changed under any circumstances.
What to watch next
- Compliance with the September 26 deadline.
- Future inability to amend registered names.
