Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children

Adoption in Ireland: Discussion

10:50 am

Mr. Kiernan Gildea:

They choose unilaterally to go to Russia. A small number will still be able to go there for several more months, due to an amendment made to the Act last December. A total of 23 couples could have availed of the amendment; nine have done so and two have succeeded. Many dropped out of the system and we do not really know why.
