Section 333-011-0315 - Disposition of Reports of Induced Termination of Pregnancy

(1) Reports of induced termination of pregnancy are statistical reports only and are not to be incorporated into the official records of the Vital Statistics Section. The state registrar is authorized to dispose of such reports when all statistical processing of the records has been accomplished. However, the state registrar may establish a file of such records so they will be available for future statistical and research projects provided such file is not made a part of the official records and the reports are not made available for the issuance of certified copies. Such file shall be retained for as long as the state registrar deems necessary and it shall then be destroyed. The file may be maintained by photographic, electronic, or other means as determined by the state registrar, in which case the original report from which the photographic, electronic, or other file was made shall be destroyed.

(2) The provisions of this regulation shall also apply to all records of induced termination of pregnancy filed prior to the adoption of this regulation.
