I apologise. Work is being done but this is the Government's first attempt to regulate it. It is important we get it right and do not leave gaps. I note what Dr. Madden and others said about the need to ensure we do not have potential exploitation of surrogate mothers and that children born in surrogacy have their rights protected. A number of the issues have been addressed by presenters earlier today and this afternoon.
