Jan O'Sullivan (Limerick East, Labour)

I move amendment No. 33:

In page 25, between lines 13 and 14, to insert the following:

21.—A person or couple who has or have prior to the commencement of this Part adopted a child from another country, may notwithstanding this Act conduct a second or subsequent adoption from that country within 5 years of such commencement if the Authority is satisfied that the standards that are being or will be applied to the adoption accord with those of the Hague Convention.".
