Adoptions in Dominica - suspension (06.01.2017)

The Mission of the International Adoption (MAI) informs families in an individual adoption procedure in the Dominican Republic about its decision, taken by order of 16 December 2016 pending publication in the Official Journal of the French Republic, to suspend all international adoptions in this country.

Indeed, the MAI observes that the ethical principles and rules of public order governing intercountry adoption in our country are not respected in the Dominican Republic. The procedures do not meet the basic principles of the International Convention on the Rights of the Child.

Also, as of 1 February 2017 , no more long stay visa applications for adoption will be allowed.

The International Adoption Mission draws the attention of families to the fact that adoptions done in the Dominican Republic by an adoption judgment in spite of the suspension would risk, in addition to being denied a long stay visa, not to be recognized by the French courts.

When 18-month-old Ahmed Khan went missing from outside his Mankhurd home, Mumbai police started searching for clues in the locality. However, they ended unearthing a child trafficking racket spanned across four states. The investigation led to the rescue of four other children, who were about to sold be by a non-government organisation (NGO) in Goa under the pretext of adoption.

Ahmed was playing outside his house when he went missing on December 4. Initially, family thought Yogita Salle had taken him as she would often play and look after him. However, when the Khans inquired with Salle about?Ahmed, she said she was clueless about the toddler’s whereabouts.

Unable to trace their son, Ahmed’s parents lodged a police complaint. After questioning various people from the locality, Mankhurd cops zeroed in Salle. But she turned out to be a smooth operator. Salle kept her mobile phone switched on and only contacted her husband, who was also being questioned by the cops. However, cops managed a breakthrough when they traced Salle’s location to Goa against her claims of being in Malad after the kidnapping. They then laid a trap and arrested Ganesh and his friends.

Reactie op Advies RSJ "interlandelijke adoptie moet stoppen"

Op 3 november publiceerde de Raad van Strafrechtstoepassing en Jeugdbescherming een advies aan de minister van V&J om te stoppen met interlandelijke adoptie.

Na bestudering van de argumenten in het rapport, blijkt een discussie op zijn plaats. In een veranderende wereld is het goed om systemen nu en dan tegen het licht te houden, en dat is te prijzen in het initiatief van de commissie, anderzijds moeten de in het rapport afgewogen argumenten kritisch geëvalueerd worden.

In de links bij deze nieuwsbrief een viertal reacties op het rapport. Om de discussie te verdiepen.

Professor dr. Rien van IJzendoorn stelt in zijn blog dat het rapport geen deugdelijk wetenschappelijk bewijs levert voor de stelling dat interlandelijke adoptie de groei van het aantal weeshuizen zou bevorderen of de jeugdzorg in de landen van herkomst zou benadelen.

Adopted children may be interested in discovering more about their origins as an important part of their identity. Several countries allow children to access their adoption files and receive information about their biological families and the circumstances of their adoption.

This right does not always include identifying pieces of information about their biological parents (such as their identity and address).

Key aspects

• In fourteen Member States, persons have access to their adoption file and to certain information regarding their biological families at 18 years (Cyprus, Croatia, Denmark, Estonia, Greece, Lithuania, Latvia, Malta, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom).
• Only Italy requests a higher age, namely 25 years.
• In Belgium, Finland and Czechia, children aged 12 or over may exercise such a right; in Austria and Hungary, this is possible from the age of 14 years. In Bulgaria, Germany and the Netherlands (as well as in Scotland) the threshold is set at 16 years. In the Netherlands, in the case of intercountry adoption, children may obtain their adoption file from the age of 12 years.
• In France and Slovakia, the possibility to access files depends on the child’s maturity.
• Ireland and Slovenia do not grant the right to access adoption files and information relating to one’s biological family. In Ireland, there is a register for facilitating contact between adopted people and their biological families. Participation is voluntary and contact is only initiated if all people involved register. In Slovenia, new rules will apply from 15 April 2019. Access to data on biological families will only be possible if the relevant persons consent. If the child wants to obtain such data, the biological parents must therefore consent. Similarly, if the biological parents ask for information, the child has to consent.
• Certain states allow children to access this information at a lower age, provided they have the consent of their parents (for instance in Denmark, Estonia, Germany and Portugal), for important reasons (for instance in Italy and Lithuania) or subject to an individual assessment of the child’s maturity (in Belgium and Sweden).
• Some countries provide for professional assistance for children prior to or during the consultation of the adoption file. This is the case, for instance, for the French-speaking community in Belgium, where such an assistance is compulsory for all persons under 18 years, and in Finland, where the child is free to accept it or not.
• In Hungary and Estonia, there are limits on the release of information regarding the identity of biological families. These apply if biological parents or siblings could not be asked or did not consent to their identity being disclosed, or if such information is not in the child’s best interests.
• In Slovakia, adoptive parents – if they so choose – may provide the child with information about the biological family, if this is in the child’s best interest.
• In Czechia, children have the right to access files at the Registry Office from the age of 12 years, and those kept by the court at 18. In the case of the mother having requested confidentiality at birth (so called “secret birth” or “anonymous” or “confidential” birth), the disclosure of her identity is allowed only on the basis of a court’s decision, regardless of the child’s age.
