Step Parent Guardianship & Step Parent Adoption

There are currently scores if not hundreds of Irish mums without legal status post surrogacy.  This session reviews whether step adoption an option currently for Irish intending mothers? Who are the stakeholders and what’s the process ? How much does it cost ? What are the timelines and benefit of obtaining full parental rights as opposed to guardianship ?
