Mr. Andrew Munro:

It is an excellent question. It is not really about whether we treat the jurisdictions differently but whether we treat the children in the same way and ensure their rights are subjected to the same high standards. Just because somebody was in a particular country should not determine the protection of the rights of the child, intending parents or surrogate mother. These are the fundamental matters raised in the issues paper. These are the focus. It is not about whether we like country A or dislike country B; rather, the focus should be on the children and parents and on upholding their rights.
