Improving child adoption management

(VOV) - The Prime Minister has approved a project on the implementation of the Hague Convention on the Protection of Children and Cooperation in Respect of Inter-country Adoption for the 2012-2015 period.

Under the project, the Ministry of Justice is assigned to build a database on child adoption in 2012.

Besides, the Ministry of Justice will coordinate with the Ministries of Foreign Affairs, Public Security and Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs to develop a joint mechanism for monitoring the situation of Vietnamese children adopted overseas and protecting them when necessary.

Between 2013-2015, the Ministry of Justice will implement a pilot program to organise home visits for Vietnamese children adopted overseas.
