Free birth registration launched
May 12, 2011
CITY OF SAN FERNANDO — The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) in Central Luzon officially launched a month-long free birth registration program for indigent children across the region.
Adelina Apostol, chief of the DSWD in Central Luzon, said the program seeks to imbibe into the minds of the Pantawid Pamilya household beneficiaries, particularly the indigents, the importance of having a birth certificate, which is a basic requirement in almost all government and private transactions.
Free registration was made possible through a memorandum of agreement signed by Social Welfare Secretary Dinky Soliman, National Statistics Office Administrator Carmelita Ericta, and Department of Interior and Local Government Secretary Jesse Robredo.
The agreement instructs all municipal and city civil registry offices in the country to waive the fees for the timely or late registration of birth of children of Pantawid Pamilya household beneficiaries this May.
The basic requirements for birth registration as provided for in all existing civil registration guidelines shall be applicable for both timely and delayed registration applicants.
“With this program, children of Pantawid Pamilya household beneficiaries will now enjoy their rights to a name and nationality,” Apostol said.
Derived from the Conditional Cash Transfer scheme of Latin American and African countries, Pantawid Pamilya is the strategy used by the government in order to raise the standard of living of poor Filipinos.
Financial assistance will be given to a maximum of three children per household who are 0-14 years of age.
A household with three qualified children receives a subsidy of P1,400 per month during school months (June-March) and P500 per month during non-school months (April-May).
However, beneficiaries should comply with the program’s conditions that include the regular visit of the children in the health center to avail immunization and maintenance of a class attendance rate of at least 85 percent per month for those who are enrolled in day care centers or schools.
Grantees are selected thru the National Household Targeting System for Poverty Reduction – a mechanism that uses the Proxy Means Test (PMT).
The PMT is an electronic formula composed of socio-economic variables that ranks and selects the household beneficiaries based on the household assessment form (HAF) filled-up during the enumeration.
A household whose economic condition falls on or below the poverty line would qualify for the said program.
