Vol. 508 No. 4
169 Mr. E. Ryan asked the Minister for Health and Children the individual or body responsible for registering church marriages and if he will make a statement on the matter. [19320/99]
170 Mr. E. Ryan asked the Minister for Health and Children the individual or body responsible for the registration of church marriages; the estimated cost of the registration by those involved; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [19321/99]
I propose to take Questions Nos. 169 and 170 together.
The administration of the registration system is a matter for An tÁrd-Chláraitheoir – the Registrar General for Births, Deaths and Marriages – and for local registrars who operate under his general direction.
