Hungary’s government to scrap Orban-era restriction on gay adoption

The Hungarian government has announced plans to repeal existing restrictions on gay adoption. Prime Minister Viktor Orbán stated that the decision-making process regarding child placement should be shifted from political entities to child welfare professionals, with the goal of ensuring children can develop into stable and harmonious members of society.

This policy shift marks a significant change in the government's approach to adoption regulations. By emphasizing the role of experts over political oversight, the administration aims to focus on the individual needs of children within the adoption system.
