Thomas P. Broughan
Ceist:142 Mr. Broughan asked the Minister for Health and Children when the procedure regarding the cross referencing of the proof of identity of the person consenting to an adoption with the information contained in the child's original birth certificate, which he outlined in the reply to Parliamentary Question No. 96 of 17 June 1998, was put in place; whether it is possible for an adoption order to proceed if these two pieces of information are not identical; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
