Vital Statistics

The RGD provides timely statistics and analysis, categorized according to international standards, to support democratic planning by Government”. Vital Statistics provide useful information necessary for planning and evaluation of national activities in areas such as Education and Health. The RGD not only records all vital events (such as births, deaths, and marriages) occurring in Jamaica, but also ensures that high integrity is maintained in recording, collating and presenting such data. In order to achieve the production of timely and useful Vital Statistics, the collaboration of many groups in and related to the Agency is required. These groups include Local District Registrars (LDRs), who register the vital events of births and deaths; Marriage Officers, who perform the wedding ceremony and solemnize marriages; Medical Officers, who supply data from hospitals and the Police and Courts Office Staff for Corners’ cases. The RGD is pleased to produce and prepare for publication The Annual Statistical Report, which seeks to provide statistics on vital events such as births, deaths, marriages and summary of causes of deaths.
