Section 9: Registration of deaths
Removes the geographic restrictions in relation to the registration of deaths to enable the death of a person occurring in Northern Ireland to be registered at any registration office in Northern Ireland. It also removes the requirement imposed on the informant to sign the register and imposes a requirement for information to be given in a particular manner.
This Section also inserts a definition of “death” in Article 2 of the 1976 Order to clarify that a death means a death in Northern Ireland.
