I move amendment No. 6:

In page 43, between lines 18 and 19, to insert the following: “(2) Any potential or relevant donor shall be required to sign a declaration demonstrating they understand the risks and effects of their decision. This shall include a legally binding commitment to care for a child in the event they are disabled or don’t possess certain characteristics. The declaration shall clearly outline that there is no power differentiation between the commissioning parents and the surrogate parent. The declaration shall also include a legal binding obligation stating that surrogacy is not being entered into for profit by the surrogate parent or other relevant parties.”.
