Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 15 June 2004
370 Ms O. Mitchell asked the Minister for Health and Children the details of the entitlement of a person (details supplied) in Dublin 8 to a judicial review of the decision to reject an application to be considered as an adopter; and if he will respond to that person’s letter to him. [17310/04]
View answerIt is open to any person seeking a judicial review of a decision by the Adoption Board to reject his or her application for an adoption order or declaration of suitability to adopt to apply to the High Court for leave to bring a judicial review application. That application may be made either by the individual direct or through a legal representative. I understand that the Adoption Board has been in contact with the named person on the matter.
A reply was issued to the named person by my office on 7 May 2004.
