I thank Ms de Boer-Buquicchio for her comprehensive answering of all the questions. It certainly helps us to understand the issue a lot better.

I have read the statement and I do not know how many times in the document I have read references to "child selling", "transfer of the child", and "sale of the child". That is a massive worry for me. Article 2 of the CRC clearly refers to the right of the child not to be sold. Does she find this method of parenting exploitative, both for the child and for the surrogate mother? What are her views on that?
