(2) The department of public health and environment shall make the birth certificate, the mother's and father's social security account numbers, and any written acknowledgments of paternity, including any notarized affidavits acknowledging paternity and any witnessed forms prescribed and furnished by the state registrar, furnished under this section and section 25-2-112 available to the state agency responsible for enforcing child support under Title IV-D of the federal "Social Security Act" upon request of that agency.
