I want to query one point under this section. In subsection (3)(a) it is stated "if satisfied that sufficient reasons exist to withhold the information concerned from the donor-conceived child" and so on. Does that close the door completely on information being given? People get on in years, they change their minds and circumstances can change. Does that provision close the door completely on information being given, or can a request for the information be submitted at a later stage?
