NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

Section 26-2-7 directs the creation of rules to govern correction of errors or omissions on vital records.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

No written comments have been received.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

Rule R436-3 outlines a standard and orderly process and requirements for correcting errors or omissions on vital records and for documenting evidence of those corrections and changes. The statute gives little guidance on amendment of vital records so the rule should be continued.
