Esteban Bernal, Minister of Economic and Social Inclusion (MIES), announced that the Government will promote changes to the Code of Childhood and Adolescence on the issue of adoption so that the process takes 9 months.
The Minister announced changes to the Code for Children and Adolescents. To do this, approaches are being made with the National Assembly to count on its support in the initiatives of the Central Government.
“There come fundamental issues such as adoption, for example, I have been one of those who has followed up, throughout my life, this problem of adoption, where the pilgrimage of parents, citizens, who want Adopting a child becomes so long that we end up generating problems throughout the process, which takes two, two and a half years, ”he mentioned.
Therefore, the idea, from the MIES, is to “significantly reduce the time” of the process.
“WE HAVE TO REDUCE THE PROCESS TO BE NEW PARENTS TO THOSE SAME 9 MONTHS OF NATURAL GESTATION,” he ANNOUNCED.
For Bernal, it would be pleasant if the process, both in the administrative matter and in the preparation of the parents, entails a temporality of 9 months.
“Another instance of the Ecuadorian State must also be involved, which is called justice, because that is where we no longer have control and can generate a damming of these healthy intentions that we have with respect to improving the conditions of adoption,” he asked.
