Programme manager Matt Briggs says the service to notify births and deaths has begun to show its value to the public, by Matt Briggs. Guardian Professional, Friday 16 December 2011. "Sometimes an initiative is launched that is so simple that one wonders why it hasn't always existed. Tell Us Once, a new birth and death notification service, is one of those initiatives.
It is led by the Department for Work and Pensions and offered in partnership with central and local government. It enables those reporting a birth or a death to notify these organisations, along with the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency, Identity and Passport Service and HM Revenue and Customs in one go. The registrar asks the customer which authorities need to be contacted and then does this for them electronically. The customer can use the service in person or over the phone, and next year an online service will be launched..."
