The administration of the system for the registration of births is a matter for An tArd-Chláraitheoir, the Registrar General of births, deaths and marriages, and for local registrars who operate under his general direction.

I have been informed that an application to re-register the surname details of the person (details supplied) has been processed and approved by an tArd Chláraitheoir and the re-registration was effected by the office of the superintendent registrar of the western area of the Health Service Executive, which covers the County of Mayo, on May 20, 2005.
