Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Registration of Births, Deaths and Marriages Regulations 1968. Under those Regulations registration officers were required to account quarterly to the Registrar General for fees paid to them in connection with their registration duties. Under the amended provisions they are required to render accounts annually (regulation 2). The account to be rendered in April 1997 will cover the preceding nine months only (regulation 3).
