Extract

On 27 July 1999 a UK Act was passed to “make provision for giving effect to the Convention on Protection of Children and Co-operation in respect of Intercountry Adoption concluded at the Hague on 29 May 1993” and “to make further provision in relation to adoptions with an international element”.1 At the time of writing, however, the UK had not ratified the Convention. By section. 18(3) the Act will be brought into force on a date appointed by statutory instrument.
