Legislation dealing with the adoption of children and related matters. As of 31 December 1972, an adoption in Hong Kong may only be effected in accordance with the Adoption Ordinance (Cap 290). However, it does not affect the status and rights of a person adopted in Hong Kong under Chinese law and custom before 1 January 1973: Adoption Ordinance (Cap 290) s 25.
