The application was dismissed because material contradictions between the applicants' sworn affidavits and the birth certificate left the child's identity and parental status uncertain; the guardian ad litem's statutory duty to verify identity under s.13 had not been satisfied; the biological mother's consent had not been dispensed with; and the court cannot rectify registry entries which must be corrected by the Registrar, therefore the adoption order could not be granted.
