Samuel Adom Botchway, the Acting Registrar of the Births and Deaths Registry (BDR) has revealed that plans are far advanced to construct new office complexes for all 16 regions, including the National Headquarters, and to provide the necessary logistics to improve efficiency and working conditions across the country.
Speaking at a one-day workshop for district registrars in the Volta Region on Document Fraud and Awareness in Ho, Botchway said all paperwork, funding, and planning have been finalized to begin construction soon. "We are ready to commence work on new office buildings across all regions.
We are also in the process of procuring over 300 motorcycles and vehicles to enhance staff mobility and service delivery," he disclosed.
He acknowledged that logistical challenges and inadequate office space have long hindered the Registry's work but affirmed that steps are being taken to modernize and digitize their operations nationwide. "Within two months of assuming office, I have mobilized efforts to ensure that every region-including the National Office, has a permanent and befitting workplace," he said.
