Birth Information and Tracing Bill 2022: From the Seanad
Dail Éireann — 2022-06-22
============================================================

Ivana Bacik (LAB), Dublin Bay South

I, too, welcome the review. As I said, it is very important and positive to see a statutory framework finally being put in place, after many previous attempts, whereby adopted persons can access birth and identity information. A review will be very helpful in seeing just how effective the legislation is, whether the mandatory information session ultimately operates as a restriction on the access rights of individual adopted persons, and if in time it can be removed.
