Dr. Charles Tannock MEP Email

From a source Z.............Below is an e-mail sent to MEPs by MEP Charles Tannock, who chaired our hearing a few weeks ago. MEP Gibault also sent an e-mail to all of the MEPs requesting they sign Declaration 23. Our European adoptive parent groups have been hard at work sending letters to MEPs from their respective countries requesting they sign this Declaration. There are currently 196 signatures out of the 366 needed to enable this Declaration to go to the EU Parliament. We are praying and working towards a goal of 500 - a number that the Commissioners cannot ignore (nor can Nicholson, Gomes and the Romanian govermnet).

Dear Concerned colleagues,

As a doctor and retired Consultant Psychiatrist I entirely agree with the sentiments of Madame Gibault and believe that a loving home (wherever its located) is always a better solution for an abandoned child than institutional care or even worse which I regrettably know occurs in Romania, of forcing the child back on biological parents who are either incapable or unwilling to bring-up their child, hence their reason for deserting their own child in the first place.

best wishes
