Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

The proviso to section 1(1) of the Act (which requires a registrar to register the birth of a living new-born child found exposed in his sub-district) shall apply to a still-born child as it applies to a live-born child; and section 3 of the Act (which requires information of birth particulars to be given when a living new-born child is found exposed) shall apply to a still-born child as it applies to a live-born child, subject to the modification that the words “and of any person in whose charge the child may be placed” shall be omitted.
