Births, deaths and Marriages - life events registered by financial year

Life events are counted in the month and year they are registered by the Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages. This may be different to when the event occurred.\r\n\r\nBDM identified an issue with the original registrations data published for 2022-2023. We have now addressed this.\r\n\r\nMarriage registrations decreased in 2020-21. This was a result of restrictions on weddings due to coronavirus (COVID-19).\r\n\r\nHigher numbers in 2016 and 2017 reflect work to clear a backlog.\r\n\r\nRegistered relationships have increased since 2016 due to a change of legislation.\r\n\r\nBDM provides data on stillbirths to the Consultative Council on Obstetric and Paediatric Mortality and Morbidity (CCOPMM). CCOPMM advises the government on strategies to improve obstetric and paediatric care.\r\n

出生、死亡与婚姻登记局（Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages，简称BDM）将按照事件的登记年月对各类生命事件进行统计，登记时间或与事件实际发生时间存在差异。

BDM在2022-2023年发布的原始登记数据中发现一处问题，目前该问题已完成整改。

2020-2021年婚姻登记量出现下滑，这系受冠状病毒（coronavirus，COVID-19）疫情下的婚礼举办限制措施影响所致。

2016年与2017年的登记数据偏高，系当时为清理登记业务积压所开展的专项工作所致。

自2016年起，已登记伴侣关系数量因相关立法修订实现增长。

BDM会向产科与儿科死亡率与发病率咨询委员会（Consultative Council on Obstetric and Paediatric Mortality and Morbidity，简称CCOPMM）提供死产相关数据。该委员会将为政府制定优化产科与儿科诊疗服务的相关策略提供咨询意见。
