The director of ADECOP Andalusia, Fernando Martos, wanted to send a message of calm from 'Interview' of South Canal to potential adopters by recent cases of alleged irregularities which are news these days.
The arrest of members of the NGO Arca de Zoé 'and the investigation of other NGOs in Catalonia have created some confusion among some applicants for adoption.  

In this sense, Fernando Martos has ensured that this news "does not have to affect the usual arrangements for international adoption if it causes some uncertainty."  

Martos has launched a message of peace of mind by ensuring that partners and the Government of Andalusia through the Directorate General for Children and Family control all adoption proceedings. "This is a fairly regulated," he Apostille.

The director of Andalusia ADECOP wanted to clarify the different roles played by a partner who is involved in certain stages of the adoption process between the country and the child's parents and an NGO.  

It has rebranded it can only be operated by the associations. In the case of ADECOP, an NGO working on specific projects in some countries, also operates as a partner of international adoption.

 

It has stressed that there are certain actions in which the entities can not intervene. In Andalusia, for example, when it comes to valuing the family that adopts. 

With regard to the legal framework, Fernando Martos it welcomed the recent approval of the State Law Adoptions because it regulates and adapting our legislation to the Hague Convention. 

However, it believes that it has lost a "good opportunity to unify criteria for all the autonomous communities" and establish overall control over the process. He has cited as an example of the age difference of parents with regard to children who are going to take in the various communities.  

Adoptive families
In Andalusia, the profile of the adoptive family is usually middle class, from age 30, with enough time and cohabiting with a process of trying to parenthood by other means. Therefore, there are parents who arrive "very full of anxiety."

The director of ADECOP has reported that "no country in the world accepts same-sex couples to adopt. Reminded that we are speaking of "an administrative proceeding initiated at the request of applicants that culminates in another country with another administrative procedure different from here."

'LA ENTREVISTA DE CANAL SUR'
El proceso de adopción internacional es fiable, según ADECOP
09/11/2007  Informativos CanalSur     
El director de ADECOP Andalucía, Fernando Martos, ha querido lanzar un mensaje de tranquilidad desde 'La entrevista' de Canal Sur a los potenciales adoptantes por los últimos casos de supuestas irregularidades que son noticia estos días.
La detención de miembros de la ONG 'Arca de Zoé' y la investigación de otra ONG en Cataluña han creado cierto desconcierto entre algunos solicitantes de adopción.
 En este sentido, Fernando Martos ha asegurado que estas noticias "no tiene por qué afectar a los trámites habituales de adopción internacional aunque sí provoca cierta inseguridad".
 Martos ha lanzado un mensaje de tranquilidad asegurando que las entidades colaboradoras y la Junta de Andalucía a través de la Dirección General de Infancia y Familia controlan todos los procesos de adopción. "Se trata de una actividad bastante regulada", ha apostillado.

 Precisamente ha destacado en el caso concreto de Chad que los responsables de asignación han detectado una incidencia y, por ello, la justicia ha funcionado correctamente.
 El director de ADECOP Andalucía ha querido aclarar las distintas funciones que desempeñan una entidad colaboradora que interviene en determinadas fases del proceso de adopción entre el país del menor y el de los padres y una ONG.
 Y ha remarcado que sólo pueden ser entidades las asociaciones. En el caso concreto de ADECOP, que es una ONG que trabaja en determinados proyectos en algunos países,  también funciona como entidad colaboradora de adopción internacional.
 Sí ha destacado que hay determinadas actuaciones en las que las entidades no pueden intervenir. En Andalucía, por ejemplo, cuando se trata de valorar a la familia que adopta.
 Con respecto al marco legal, Fernando Martos se ha felicitado por la reciente aprobación de la Ley Estatal de Adopciones por cuanto regula y adapta nuestra legislación al Convenio de la Haya.
 No obstante, considera que se ha perdido una "una buena ocasión para unificar criterios para todas las comunidades autónomas" y establecer un control general sobre los procesos. Ha citado como ejemplo el de la diferencia de edad de los padres con respecto a los menores que van a adoptar en las distintas comunidades.
 Familias adoptantes
En Andalucía, el perfil de la familia adoptante suele ser de clase media, a partir de los 30 años, con bastante tiempo de conviviencia y con un proceso de intentar la paternidad por otros medios. Por eso, hay padres que llegan "muy cargados de ansiedad".

El director de ADECOP ha informado de que "ningún país del mundo acepta parejas del mismo sexo" para adoptar. Ha recordado que estamos hablando de "un procedimiento administrativo iniciado a instancia de los solicitantes que culmina en otro país con otro procedimiento administrativo distinto al de aquí".
