Official written record of names (8)

I believe the answer is:

registry

(Other definitions for registry that I've seen before include "Place to keep records" , "Office where records are kept" , "record-holder" , "Official written record of names, events etc" , "Place where written documents or records are kept" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
