(asked on 20th February 2015) - View Source
Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many children of Chinese origin have been adopted by people resident in the UK in the last five years.
This question was answered on 25th February 2015
Between 1 January 2010 and 31 December 2014, the Department for Education has processed a total of 73 inter-country adoptions where China is the child’s country of origin.
This figure relates to inter-country adoption cases in which the adopters are habitually resident in England only, as adoption is a devolved matter.
