Abstract

The analysis of law and practice relating to the protection of vulnerable adults in cross-border cases shows that a wide ratification of The Hague Convention of 13 January 2000 on the International Protection of Adults would improve the present situation in all EU Member States. In addition, the adoption of EU legislation should be considered with a view to fixing the few weaknesses of the Convention and making cooperation in this field in relations among Member States even more efficient.
