Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

General Scheme of Assisted Human Reproduction Bill 2017: Discussion (Resumed)

9:00 am

Professor Deirdre Madden:

As I said in my submission, if the Bill is retained in its current form, my concern is that people will still travel abroad for surrogacy. Therefore, we are not tackling the issue of exploitation. We are just trying to ensure it does not happen here.
