9:30am on 8 March 2018 to 11:59pm on 20 April 2018

Consultation description

The Human Fertilisation and Embryology (Parental Orders) Regulations are being remade to sit alongside the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act 2008 (Remedial) Order 2018. This will allow a single person to apply for a parental order to become a child’s legal parent after a surrogacy arrangement.

We are seeking views from all those with an interest in this issue on whether the regulations are correct and accurate.
