Posted: Thursday, August 10, 2023. 6:50 pm CST.

By Aaron Humes: Today, Cabinet announced that it had considered and approved the joint plan from the Attorney General’s Ministry and the Ministry of E-Governance for a program to strengthen the civil registry.

This will achieve a more efficient civil registry program, modernizing and improving all services of the Vital Statistics Unit through the establishment of a pertinent legal policy framework, simplified procedures and an inclusive and accessible online service.

The Unit oversees the registration of births, deaths and marriages but is largely dealing with a manually kept record system. Plans have been in train to move the Unit to more spacious headquarters at the Charles Bartlett Hyde Administration Building for some time.
