PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Surrogacy: Lone Parents (11 July 2017)

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, with reference to the contribution of Baroness Chisholm on 14 December 2016, Official Report, HL, column 1330, what the timetable is for the remedial order on the provision of parental orders for single parents of children conceived through surrogacy.

Asked by:
Ms Stella Creasy (Labour)

Drafting work on the remedial order, which will allow single people to apply for a parental order in a surrogacy arrangement, is ongoing. We currently estimate that the remedial order will be laid when Parliament returns after the Summer recess period.
