(c)those details are provided together with instructions about whether the party wishes those details to be recorded in addition to or instead of details of the relevant parent, and
(d)the condition in paragraph (4C) is satisfied.

(b)record the word “step-parent” after the surname of each of the nominated step-parents on the conversion declaration,
