20.(1) Subject to paragraph (2), the Registrar General may, on production of
such evidence as appears to him satisfactory, at any time within three months
from the date of the birth give his written authority for the registration of
the birth of a legitimated person (whether his legitimation, or the
recognition thereof, was effected under the Legitimacy Act (Northern Ireland)
1928 or otherwise) if his birth is not already duly registered under this
Order, or any statutory provision repealed by this Order.

(2) Paragraphs (2) and (3) (except sub-paragraph (a)), (8) and (9) of Article
19 shall apply for the purposes of the registration of a birth under this
Article as they apply for the purposes of the re-registration of a birth under
that Article.
