Abstract: Introduction: It has been enlightening to attend this conference and we have all benefitted from the papers and interview presented here. By way of conclusion, I would like to add to this discussion by offering some comments on the Maltese Law of adoption from a different perspective namely from the point of view of the Maltese Legal System. Essentially, the sources of Maltese Adoption Law are twofold, civil law and common law. Please permit me to expand upon this statement.
