Authorities for identity documents that are birth certificates
839 Authorities for identity documents that are birth certificates
An authority given under former section 186 or 187 to create a birth certificate to help conceal the identity of a covert operative for an existing CMC controlled operation or an existing police service controlled operation continues in force as a birth certificate approval given under new section 288.
A birth certificate created in accordance with an authority continued in force under subsection (1) continues in force as if it were a birth certificate created under new section 290 and may continue to be used for the purpose for which it was created.
If, under new section 286, the chief executive officer cancels an authority mentioned in subsection (1), new section 291 applies to a birth certificate created under former section 186 or 187 in the same way as it applies to a birth certificate created under new section 290.
