Inter-country adoptions might be resumed

published in issue 4539 page 1 at 2009-10-16

The Romanian Adoptions Office (ORA) has sent the Government a memorandum on resuming international adoptions only in cases where domestic adoption repeatedly fails, reads the ORA paper cited by Mediafax. The document shows that, during the four years if implementation of the Adoption Act, it has become evident that there are still a few categories of ‘children who are difficult to give for adoption’. ‘Those would be children older than six years of age, children belonging to certain ethnic minorities, children with severe health conditions or those who are more than two siblings and for whom Romanian adoptive families are hard to find. All such children stay in special state care until the age of 18’, reads the document.
