When any certificate of birth of a living child is presented without the statement of the given name, the local registrar shall make out and deliver to the parents of the child a special blank for the supplemental report of the given name of the child, which shall be filled out as directed, and returned to the local registrar as soon as the child has been named and not later than six months after the birth. No minister authorized by the Government to perform the ceremony of baptism shall baptize a child unless a certified copy of the record of birth stating the name of the child has been produced, except that such minister, in any case where there is reason to believe that a child might die before the certificate can be obtained, may baptize the child without the certificate. In such a case, the minister shall report within 24 hours to the office of the local registrar the name with which the child was baptized.
