Section 26-2-3 provides that the Department of Health establish a statewide vital records system. Section 26-2-15 provides for petitioning the courts for establishment of unregistered births or deaths after the fact.

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

Rule R436-6 provides additional details necessary to register a court-ordered birth or death, including information needed and requirements for foreign-born children. The rule should be continued because it clarifies requirements for court-ordered vital events.
