To clarify what said regarding people being able to be more ethical when they are wealthier, that was said in response to a question from Senator Seery Kearney concerning gay men's access to surrogacy or being able to travel further afield. It referred to a context where things are more established and regulated, instead of intended parents who are less wealthy being forced into less ideal situations. Ms Gamble was talking about that aspect, rather than about people being able to make ethical decisions about their bodily autonomy. She was referring to the wealthy position of intended parents, rather than to the economic position of the person offering to be a surrogate mother. I ask Ms Gamble to clarify that was the context of the conversation.
