Birth Information and Tracing Bill 2022: Committee Stage

We will not get to discuss this again when we are voting on the amendments, and I will be pushing amendment No. 72 to a vote when the time comes. I completely understand what the Minister is saying, that nobody wants to limit access to the provisions by causing anyone to have to prove anything, and the Minister referenced a situation where somebody would have to prove his or her adoption was illegal. Amendment No. 72 that I have put forward inserts "or illegal birth registration information". It is literally incorrect to say they are just inaccurate, or what is the original term in the legislation?
