Adoption issues clearer following Vietnam’s backing of accord, says [Irish] Minister

From the Irish Times:

THERE ARE issues still to be addressed in the area of adoption between Ireland and Vietnam, Minister of State for Trade And Development Jan O’Sullivan said yesterday, but the situation had improved considerably since Hanoi ratified the Hague Convention on Intercountry Adoption.

“There is more clarity about what the issues are, and I think we can deal with some issues in the meantime. Intercountry adoption is a highly sensitive issue and we have to make sure any arrangements made are absolutely appropriate, said Ms O’Sullivan.
