The Registration acts state that corrections of errors discovered, at the time of entry, before completion of the certificate are numbered and initialled in the right hand margin of the certificate, they have to be numbered, obviously to prevent someone coming along later and altering an entry. Errors discovered within a month of the entry being made; the Registrar corrects the erroneous entry by entry in the margin, without making any alteration of the original entry, and signs the marginal entry, adding date when the correction was made.
