However, the Committee is concerned that the State Party is yet to ratify the Hague Convention on Children Protection and Cooperation in Respect of Intercountry Adoption. The Committee therefore urges the State Party to ratify and implement the Hague Convention and reinforce the system on the supervision of social-oriented public and private activities for a long term child placement.
