Hi All
I have requested that the Catholic Church (local diocese) remove my name/de identify my name in their baptismal register. So far, they have vehemently refused citing Canon Law.

I have spoken to OAIC, who are working with them, albeit slowly due to their workload and this issue seems to be at the bottom of the pile. The OAIC have formed the opinion that my name should be de identified or removed (haven’t received much further than that)

has anyone had any luck with this in the past, or no of any examples?

cheers
