KOTA KINABALU: The public has been urged to report births and deaths to the police station should both occur outside hospitals prior to registration.

Sabah National Registration (NRD) director Khairrul Aminus Kamaruddin said the procedure was the department's new and updated registration guideline.

"Informants have to bring the police report and registration form to do register at the nearest NRD," he said in a statement.
