Okay, heres a website that might help you with contact numbers.

http://www.community.nsw.gov.au/

Give the government dept a call, they might have some offical stats they can give you for your assignment. Also they might have some information they can send you about the current legal process if you need it. Or look for a similar site, with your state listing for a local phone call.

All the best!

edit; Honest & sober has directed you to a really good site! It even has a table outlining the process, along with a breakdown in the stats. I didn’t come across that one in my searches.

Question: How do I package my adopted baby back to the adoption?
Me and my wife thought we were getting an adopted girl the other week, she is apparently 11 months old. Then we found out this week that we can’t after all. So we brought a puppy. This adoption is abroad and a social worker came over this morning to drop off the baby, which we knew nothing about. But we like our dog and not this baby and we want to send it back to the adoption, how do we do this?

I am thinking of putting it into a box and sending it to the post office tommorow morning, what do you think?

Yeah, just wrap it in bubble wrap and put it in with some foam peanuts, Fed-Ex will take care of it from there.
