• conditional

  There is no AUTOMATIC derivative acquisition for a child when a parent registers/naturalises; the derivative pathway operates through Art 124 registration of minors (SG-CBN-01; SG-E1-021). Once Bianca's mother becomes a Singapore citizen, Bianca will satisfy Art 124(1)(a) (child of a citizen) and (b) (residing in Singapore), making her eligible for discretionary registration as a minor. Until the mother's registration is completed, the parent-citizen condition is not yet met. Outcome is conditional: eligibility crystallises upon the parent becoming a citizen, then registration of the minor is discretionary ('the Government may'). This is the derivative minor-following-parent (CBN) edge case; the child does not acquire citizenship automatically with the parent.

• conditional

  Where a person is deprived of citizenship under Art 134(1)(a) (or renounces, or is deprived under Art 129(2)(a)), Art 130 permits the Government to deprive of citizenship any child of that person under 21 who was registered as a citizen as being that person's child (SG-E1-025/SG-E2-027). Tunde was registered under Art 124 as the father's child and is under 21, so Art 130 exposes him to derivative deprivation following his father's Art 134(1)(a) deprivation. However, Art 137(2) bars deprivation that would render the child stateless, and Art 129(7) requires the Government to be satisfied it is 'not conducive to the public good' for him to remain a citizen. Deprivation is discretionary and runs through Art 133 procedure. Outcome is conditional: his derivative citizenship is contingent on the parent's status but is not automatically lost, and statelessness is a safeguard (he retains Nigerian citizenship, so the safeguard may not protect him).
