Dominica is expected to have a modernised civil registry by September, 2010, with assistance from the Organisation of American States (OAS).<\/p>\n

This initiative is part of an OAS project entitled ‘Universal Civil Identity Program in the Americas (PUICA)’ which is funded by the Government of Canada. The project is expected to improve the functioning of civil registries in the OECS sub-region.<\/p>\n

Representative of the OAS in Dominica Joseph Campbell says with data already stored on computer systems, the process of providing birth certificates, among other documents, becomes smoother.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey already have the data on the computer. The real step is to put it in a system where it is easily accessible and secure; they could manage it, and they could then computer print a birth certificate. For that, they may or may not need legal changes, but we anticipate everything should be done by September,\u201d Campbell said.<\/p>\n

Collaboration between the OAS and Government of Dominica started more than two years ago under the OECS Civil Registry and Identity Project, funded by the Chilean Government. The current modernization process is expected to have four components: digitization and preservation of records; modernization of the legal framework; computerization of the processes; and creation of an identity system. In effect OAS assistance will ensure the digitalization of births and deaths records, improved safety and management, and facilitate electronic printing of birth certificates and create the possibility for a national identification card.<\/p>\n

Last year the OAS facilitated the site visit of three high level civil registry officials from Dominica to observe the Haitian model. This week, newly appointed OAS Caribbean coordinator, Paul Hughes, visited Dominica to discuss strategies to execute the project. Hughes and the local OAS Representative Dr. Joseph Campbell met with the Registrar Reginald<\/p>\n

Winston and the Deputy Registrar Ossie Walsh as well as personnel of the ICT unit. In addition, the OAS team met with Deputy Director of the Dominica Social Security, Augustus Ettienne to apprise him of the OAS initiative that can be beneficial to his institution.<\/p>\n

The OAS is providing assistance for the project in the form of equipment, and training personnel.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will fund any technical assistance to make sure that the system operates well and the system can be sustainable,\u201d Campbell assured.<\/p>\n
