The Registration of Births and Deaths (Amendment) Regulations 1997
These Regulations amend the Registration of Births and Deaths Regulations 1987 and the Registration of Births and Deaths (Welsh Language) Regulations 1987. They make provision for the implementation of the Deregulation (Still-Birth and Deaths Registration) Order 1996 (S.I. 1996/2395), which will allow persons registering a death or still-birth to do so by making a declaration before a person other than the registrar for the sub-district where the death or still-birth occurred.
