Speaking in the House of Lords on 22 October 2024
Debate
Human Fertilisation and Embryology (Amendment) Regulations 2024Contribution
What is the impact of the legislation that we are debating today? It will allow it for same-sex male couples where one or both have HIV in a surrogacy arrangement, as well as those seeking known donation from a friend or relative with HIV. It will also allow female same-sex couples to undergo reciprocal IVF. This legal change is not expected to be an additional cost to the National Health Service, as many of these procedures are provided only privately.
