- Description:
- Irish adoption laws and procedures remain largely based on the provisions of the original Adoption.Act 1952. Although, in the intervening years, there have been some amendments to that legislation, the nature of the adoption system still derives from the attitudes and social circumstances of Irish society in the 1950's. A review of the system is long overdue. The adoption of a child has profound"human consequences for all concerned both in the short-tenn and long-tenn. The manner in which it takes place and the perceptions and policies on which it is founded should be subject to constant review to ensure that the best interests and the rights of the chIld are always paramount while also having a sensitive regard for" the position of the other parties to the process.
