Stem Cell Research: Statements.
We are looking at stem cell research through which we can treat the dying organs of people and help them re-grow and reform. This could apply to people who have problems with their kidneys, liver or heart. The extent is unknown, but much can be done. On the other hand, we are clear that we are opposed to the deliberate production of embryos for research purposes and the cloning of human beings, which is a good thing. The Minister has made the best of all possible decisions and I applaud and support it.
