I move amendment No. 41:

In page 23, to delete lines 38 to 40, and in page 24, to delete lines 1 to 13.

Amendments Nos. 41 and 69 in combination remove the requirement from section 14 for a donor in a surrogacy agreement to receive an AHR information document. Instead, they specify, in section 24, more detail on the important relevant aspects as part of such a donor's informed consent process. This is in line with the approach followed in respect of donations under the Children and Family Relationships Act 2015. It will ensure the informed consent of donors, as they will be required to confirm that they understand the legal effect of their donation as part of the consent process.
