§ 80. Mr. SoleyTo ask the Secretary of State for Health whether he has any proposals to change the regulations for registration of the deaths of stillborn children.
§ Mr. FreemanMy right hon. and learned Friend has made proposals to change the statutory provisions for the registration of stillbirths in ways which would align them more closely with death registration procedures, and these are contained in the Green Paper entitled "Registration: a modern service" Cm. 531 which was published on 1 December 1988. Comments on those proposals, and on others affecting the registration service more widely, have been invited by 31 March.
