1. Objectives of the Study
It is a well known fact that a prompt and reliable data on demographic information is essential in a proper planning and evaluation of any program of national or community level. Especially viatal statistics are an important demographic component among demographic information.
Realizing the importance of vital statistics, the government has made some efforts for years to improve the vital registration system which has a close relationship with the production of vital statistics. However, it is still observed that there are some limitations in utilizing vital registration data due to considerable amount of vital events which are never registered and registered but not in time or inaccurately, even though vital registration system in Korea has sound legal basis.
In this connection, the objectives of the study is as follows : (1) To examine some problems of the vital registration system in various aspects, (2) To make improvement programme of Continuous Demographic Survey as a supplementary source of vital statistics, and (3) To find out some alternatives for making it possible to produce and utilize the reliable vital statistics by developing analytical methodologies on that.
2. Current Situation of Vital Registration System
All the vital events, i.e. births, deaths, marriages and divorces, are to be registered in time under the Civil Registration Law, Statistics Law and Regulation on Vital Statstics as a duty of people. Some recent tendencies in each of recent registration are summarized as below :
(1) The completeness of vital registration
ㆍOut of all births which are occurred during a year, around75% of those compared to the estimates are registered in the year of occurrence.
ㆍIn case of death registration, the percentage of registration in the year of occurrence has been gradually increased from 86.2% in the year of 1980, but it is still below the level of 90% compared to the estimates.
ㆍThe percentage of registration for marriages and divorces in the year of occurrence out of total registered numbers was revealed to be 69% and 73% respectively in 1985.
(2) Continuous Demographic Survey
ㆍIt is a kind of sample survey for the purpose of producing reliable vital statistics which could not be provided by the vital registration.
ㆍIt covers about 17,000 sample households at national level and important information for vital events are collected in every month by 323 expertized enumerators who are regular staff of the government.
Although the result of the survey seems to be more reliable than that of vital registration, the reliability of the data is still below the acceptable level if compared with relevant information from other sources such as population census or special surveys.
3. Problems of Vital Registration System
There are four major obstacles in improving vital registration system in Korea ;
(1) In general, policy priority is not given on any programme of improving vital registration system. It is, therefore, very difficult to formulate comprehensive programme through having cooperation from related authorities and sufficient financial assistance.
(2) In all the laws related and system itself, there is substantial degree of overlap and irrationality. Registration of each vital event is maintained according to several laws and regulation such as Civil Registration Law, Statistics Law, Resident Registration Law and Regulation on Vital Statistics. However they are mutually overlapped and overall supervision can not be done systematically due to lack of co-operation among the authorities concerned.
(3) The administration of vital registration system seems to be working inefficiently, because of most of civil servants who are in charge of vital registration are lacking of conception on vital statistics and also there is a certain extent of regidity in handling the works. Therefore, they are doing their jobs in a passive way.
(4) A substantial proportion of vital events occurred is not registered within the legal time limit (i.e. within one month after the occurrence in case of birth and death) or not registered forever. Some of social customs and superstitution seem to be the potential causes especially in case of births and deaths.
4. Recommendations for the Improvement of Vital Statistics
(1) Reporting systems such as civil registration, vital statistics and resident registration should be integrated under the single law. Also, administrative supervision, personnel and budget with regard to the registration system should be under the control of a single ministry.
(2) It is necessary to simplify the procedures and methods of reporting vital events, i.e., reducing number of sheets of the form, making corrections easily, reducing registration items, etc.
(3) Continuous Demographic Survey as a supplementary source of vital registration should be improved and special ad-hoc surveys should be conducted wth regular interval.
(4) In-depth analysis should be done using various sources of data on vital statistics.
5. Concluding Remarks
From this study, we can notice that temporary campaign and motivation programs are not sufficient to improve the quality of vital statistics. Strong intentions and continuous efforts of the government are needed for the improvement of the vital registration system. Furthermore, most of the data collected through the registration are not properly analyzed and utilized, partly due to the lack of appreciation among high-level governmental officials of the need for vital statistics. It is, therefore, requested that long-term improvement programs of vital statistics be implemented with policy priority and continuous efforts be given to this purpose as a long-term goal of development in Korea.
