- Bogdan Panait, head of the Authority for Child Protection, like maternal assistants can not adopt children in foster care had, otherwise they nemaiavand right to practice the craft of maternal asisistent. Under the project, they must have at least 10 classes, and those who have passed retirement age can not be certified. The validity of the certificate of child will be reduced to two years.

Proposals ANPDC

Conditions for obtaining the certificate, certification procedures and status of foster care will be changed by an act prepared by the National Authority for Child Protection. The draft decision is published on the official website of the institution and is in phase
public debate.

A sensitive point is that Bogdan Panait, head of National Authority for Child Protection, no ageeaza adoption of a child by child. He will give the Directorate of Social continuing contract of employment with a child who wants to
adopt the child in foster care. Chief ANPDC appreciate that in this case, the child is violating the obligations of service. But until you account for that by eliminating the system of a child, because he adopted a kid who grew up in a period of time,
Roman citizen violates the law (which met all legal conditions) to adopt children. The new regulations will provide that maternal assistants will be ready for urgent cases such as abuse, for children aged 0-2 years and for children with disabilities. Bogdan Panait, the child wants to be able to keep a child less than two years, except for those with disabilities. Panait support the idea that in two years when a child is in foster care have found a definitive solution: reintegration, adoption or family substitute eliminating such
foster care. Also, maternal assistants should all be educated at least 10 classes.

One of the directors of the Social Assistance Directorate in Bucharest, Danut kickshaw we said it would be hard to find a lot of foster care with 10 classrooms, and that a child should stay no more than two years in foster care is one thing more difficult to achieve. Thus, the draft legislation would be almost impossible. In the future we will present an interview granted by President ANPDC statements and Director General Directorate of Social - Sector 1, Danut kickshaw.

No assistants in common

To become a child is required (besides many other conditions related to health, housing, etc.) that that person has completed at least 10 classes and be at least 18 years older than the child who will benefit from a measure special protection. Number of
hours of training courses to be awarded the certificate of child will increase from 60 hours to 150 hours. Also, maternal nurse must attend annual refresher training courses organized by employers. Another additional condition to
obtain certificate of child is to have established residence in a community with access to educational services, medical and recovery / rehabilitation.



Pensioners have been removed

In addition to the old regulations, can not get certified persons who have exceeded the age limit of retirement, the person suffering from communicable diseases, including adult members who live with it. Also, can not be certified as a child who has consented to adotia their child or whose child or have benefited from social protection measure. This category included parent deprived of parental rights by a final court order. Unable to engage the child who suffers from mental illness, addiction is alcohol, drugs or other psychotropic substances, both she and the family that lives.
