Joint Oireachtas Committee on International Surrogacy
Prevention of the Exploitation or Coercion of Surrogates and Intending Parents: Discussion
Lynn Ruane (Independent) | Oireachtas source
Brilliant. I have one more question. Let us say there is a woman who wants to be a surrogate and who, at some point in her life, may have came into contact with any sort of service, maybe a mental health service, or may have a particular diagnosis or an invisible disability. Is there any way there is any bias against or exclusion of people on that basis, not necessarily in respect of a current assessment but in a lifetime span? Are people who want to engage in a surrogacy process judged or discriminated against somewhat, maybe, due to a particular time in their lives?
