Proposition de loi modifiant l'ancien Code civil et le Code judiciaire en vue d'autoriser l'adoption plénière de personnes majeures dans des cas exceptionnels.
This is a Belgian parliamentary bill (proposition de loi) submitted to the Chamber of Representatives. It would amend the former Civil Code and the Judicial Code so that full adoption (adoption plénière), which normally ends the legal ties with the birth family, could be granted to adults in exceptional circumstances. The title indicates the change is limited to exceptional cases; the full text would set out the specific conditions. The change would mainly affect adults who wish to be legally adopted and their adoptive families, as well as courts handling adoption requests. Based on the title alone, it is not clear which conditions or safeguards would apply. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text.
