THE MORNING LEAD

Length of time to register a death may be cut from three months to less than one

A report by

Lauren Boland

Current wait times for an appointment at some civil registration offices can take up to several weeks.

A proposal would give the deceased’s family five days to visit a registration office after receiving the cause of death cert.

The new system would quicken up a process that is handled much slower in Ireland than in other countries and reduce lags in important data.

However, current wait times for an appointment at some civil registration offices can take up to several weeks, Lauren Boland reports.
