<p>The Births and Deaths Registration Act 1953 provides for every child’s birth to
be recorded in a register kept for the sub-district in which the child was born.</p><p>Related
legislation allows for the registration to take place in a wide range of premises
such as Town Halls, hospitals, libraries and children’s centres. It is a matter for
local authorities to determine the locations in which births are registered and to
tailor their services to best meet the needs of their local community.</p>
