Yes. What we are trying to do here is ensure we have ethical international surrogacy. Dr. Horsey said it is up to the judge to decide whether it was ethical. Is there guidance for that judge? Is there a list of things parents, agencies and everyone must adhere to during the process in order for that judge to make the parental order? Alternatively, is it solely in the judge's hands? What guidance does the judge look to?
