Section 11
Neither the registration of nor the omission to register any adoption shall affect the validity of the adoption; and, provided that the identity of the adopted child, the person who adopted the child and the consenting parties are established with reasonable certainty by the particulars recorded in the
Registrar’s notebook, no error in the particulars recorded in the register nor any omission to record any particulars which ought to have been recorded shall affect the validity of the registration of the adoption.
