Joint Oireachtas Committee on International Surrogacy

Surrogacy in Ireland and in Irish and International Law: Discussion (Resumed)

Dr. Kirsty Horsey:

It was exactly the same in surveys we did in 2015 and 2018. The people who went overseas cited certainty of the processes over there and the ability to be recognised on a birth certificate as the legal parents as the main reasons that were taking them over there. Similarly, there is the uncertainty at home. It is a combination of both, as Ms Gamble said.
