Regulation 1 provides for the citation and commencement of the instrument.

This provides that where a person is required under paragraph (1) of regulation 7 to produce a certificate of a child's birth or adoption he must either produce an original certificate or a copy of that certificate which is authenticated in such a way as would render the copy admissible in proceedings in the jurisdiction in which it was made.
