Amendment No. 27 is to do with the discussion that Deputy Shortall and I have just had. As well as the definition of "surviving partner" for posthumous human assisted reproduction, or PAHR, the amendment also includes a definition of "tissue", which is related to the grouping of the earlier amendments beginning with amendment No. 7.

Amendment No. 88 also includes my amendment to delete the definition section from the PAHR part as these definitions have all been moved to section 2 of the Bill.

The rest of amendment No. 88 and amendments Nos. 57 to 65, inclusive, are directly related to the discussion we have just had around posthumous access for a man or a woman to frozen gametes.
