The Queensland Government believes it is time to review the laws that allow people to obtain identifying adoption information and to lodge objections to information being released. These laws are set out in part 4A of the Adoption of Children Act 1964. The review will consider whether part 4A of the Act continues to appropriately protect the rights and best balance the interests of all parties to adoption orders made in Queensland. - extract from introduction.
