Reminds States of their obligation to register births without discrimination of any kind, and calls upon States to do so irrespective of the status of the child’s parents, and to ensure free birth registration, including free or low-fee late birth registration limited to cases that would otherwise result in a lack of registration, by means of universal, accessible, simple, expeditious and effective registration procedures, without discrimination of any kind, as a means for providing an official record of the existence of a person and the recognition of that individual as a person before the law, and granting access to services and enjoyment of all the rights to which the child is entitled; 27. Calls upon all States to take all necessary measures to ensure that the rights of the child to life, survival and development and to the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of physical and mental health are promoted, protected and fulfilled, without discrimination of any kind, including through the development and implementation of laws, strategies and policies, with appropriate budgeting and resource allocation and adequate investment in resilient and responsive health systems and public health services, with an adequately skilled, well-trained and motivated workforce, and ensuring its availability, accessibility, affordability, acceptability and quality; 28.
