Procedure allowing adopted children to find out what their background is has been facilitated

The procedure of granting the persons adopted access to information regarding their background and their biological parents is being facilitated. From now on adopted persons and adoptive parents will be able to find out what their background is by force of a court decision - the hitherto existing requirement that this should only take place in circumstances of particular importance is being scrapped. This was approved by the MPs who voted for amendment to the Family Code.

A national full adoption information system is to be created with the Ministry of Labour and Social Policy, where the candidates for adoptive parents will be registered. It will not include international adoptions, which are within the competence of another ministry – the Ministry of Justice.
