I can assure you no money changed hands from the Irish couples for babies. These familes are innocent victims who have had their worlds turned upside down. To adopt from Ireland is not as easy as it may seem. Some of these couples are 8 years going through the adoption process due to red tape involved in particular with the HSE.

It appears that there was money changing hands in these transactions. I only hope that the Irish couples are innocent victims in this scam. I have one question. Are there not enough babies available for adoption in Ireland?

Comments like portia777 makes without knowing any facts is a disgrace. None of those couples went to buy babies, they had all the right paperwork from the proper depts and adoption visas. The depts involved should release this information as should the IAA. These are the ones who should be ashamed for not helping these poor familes.

So easy to play on needy adults whowant to get children. Legalised child trafficking. Instead of Ireland selling babies- catholic church- now Irish couples are buying babies.
