NATIONAL PEAK BODY (NPB) - OVERSEAS ADOPTION
ASIAC is pleased to announce that Dr Gary Banks has been appointed as our representative on the National Peak Body on Overseas Adoption. Gary is joined by two other current members of ASIAC - Dr Lucy Burns (previously President of ASIAC) and Marianne Sabila.

ASIAC has submitted the following agenda items for the first meeting of the NPB in late May:

- Maternity Payment: Abolish age limit
- Tax Concessions
- New Adoption Programs
- National Intercountry Adoption Standards
- Post Adoption Services
- Special Needs & Older Child Adoption

We will keep our members informed of NPB outcomes via email.

Have your say!
Know of an issue or item you feel should be raised with the NPB? Please email president@asiac.org.au

The NPB cannot resolve individual issues or cases, however they are a forum for informing the Government of key issues affecting overseas adoption or a country program.
