Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, if he will make a statement on surrogacy.

Asked by:
Anna McMorrin (Labour)

Answer

The Government recognises the value of surrogacy as one of a number of options in helping people who can’t have children create a family.

Drafting work on the remedial order is ongoing. We currently estimate it will be laid in the autumn session of Parliament.

The Department supports the proposal by the Law Commission of England and Wales to include a project about surrogacy in its work programme for 2017-20.
