"The current text of the Civil code of Venezuela has been revised on several occasions; the last general revision of the Civil code dates from 1982. ... It is noteworthy that in recent years Venezuela has chosen to adopt legal innovations in areas traditionally covered by the Civil code by enactment of special laws outside the Civil code. Two such laws ... : 1) The organic law of the civil registry [effective March 15, 2010], and 2) The organic law for the protection of boys, girls, and adolescents [in force since 2007]."--Page i.
