Short Delay in New BMD Releases on ScotlandsPeople

With all of the glitches and headaches that the launch of the new website has created, ScotlandsPeople has decided to delay the addition of the new statutory records for 2017. These are usually available on January 1st each year, but are being delayed until the 5th of January 2017 so that staff will be on hand to respond to any issues that might arise. 

On January 5th, you can look forward to accessing:

• Births for 1916
• Marriages for 1941
• Deaths for 1966
