| Abstract: | The Broadcasting Authority had, in 2007, amended its Requirements as to Standards and Practice Applicable to Participation in Media Programmes of Vulnerable Persons so as to prohibit, inter alia, programmes aimed at establishing the identity of the natural parents of children, including adopted ones. Moreover, programmes or parts thereof relating to adoption have to be aired after the 9 p.m. watershed. The same applies to programme promotions concerning adoptions. Since then, the legislator has taken action to tighten the provisions of the Civil Code on adoption. [excerpt] |
