Just seen an item on Reporting Scotland.
We are going to have to wait another 2 years before release. :(
No great surprise that the GROS spokesman quoted the old 100 years confidentiality nonsense.
Why can't they do the same as England and blank out the final column if they feel that way about it.
As we can all access BMD and divorce details in Edinburgh or local register offices (and some earlier ones online at home) we are likely to already know all the info that's listed including any bairns that didn't survive. Apart from a change of occupation and address between censues - what else is there to know.
There's no logic in their attitude that I can see.
