Dear Amanda-Jane,
 
Thank you for your enquiry dated the 2^nd March 2018, I am very sorry you
haven’t received a reply to your original enquiry dated the 8^th January
2018.
 
I have handled your request as an official correspondence rather than
under the provisions of the Freedom of Information Act, but this has made
no difference to the content of my response.
 
Each birth certificate contains a unique reference number, comprised of
letters and numbers. This is an anti-fraud measure, designed to enable it
to be possible if need be to tell where the certificate was issued from,
and to which register entry it relates. Since each certificate has a
unique number, if more than one certificate is issued for the same entry
then they will have different serial numbers.
 
Birth registration has nothing to do with “funds or delayed funds on the
world markets”, and the numbers on birth certificates are in no way
related to such matters. They simply relate to birth register entries
 
We are unable to help you any further.
 
Kind regards
 
Alex
