I move amendment No. 43:



In page 35, line 20, to delete “18 years” and substitute “16 years”.
My amendment would provide for the right of a donor-conceived child to access information from the age of 16 years. This amendment is being proposed in the context of it being a very unhappy situation to begin with. Anything that would lessen the deprivation of access of the child to information that is deeply personal and deeply relevant to them represents something of a mitigation of that bad situation.
