I move amendment No. 26:

In page 17, between lines 5 and 6, to insert the following:

"(5) In this section "contact details" do not include any such particulars as are contained in an entry in the register of adoptions in respect of an adopted person, unless the adopted person has indicated in accordance with this Act that he or she does not wish to be identified to the natural parent, in which case subsection (2) applies.".

This amendment also deals with the adoption certificate and the adoptee's ability to have some of the information on it redacted.
