Overseas commercial surrogacy to be permitted under new law

Two senior government sources confirmed weekend media reports that forthcoming amendments to the Assisted Human Reproduction Bill would effectively allow foreign surrogacy arrangements, where women in other countries are paid to be surrogate mothers for Irish parents who subsequently bring their children home to Ireland, while such commercial arrangements will remain banned in Ireland.

Now it is understood the Government will bring forward amendments to the Bill which will allow for a system of pre-approval for international surrogacy agreements, and allow the Irish parents to be registered as the child’s parents in Ireland. A new State regulator, the Assisted Human Reproduction Regulatory Authority, is to be set up under the proposed legislation.Currently, surrogacy is entirely unregulated in Irish law, leaving thousands of couples who have had children via this route in a legal limbo regarding their status as parents.

“My parents too, they have not legal grandparent relationship with our twins, so it’s the extended family that is affected too.”

I would say bordering on illegality. But what I can say for sure is that it is unethical behavior.

so...it is legal now in Ireland to buy children from women in need....if they live overseas

Congrats!

American's adopting Irish children in the 60s bad, rich Irish couples exploiting poor foreign women today = progressive. No bigger bunch of hypocrites than progressive degenerates.

Race to the bottom. We have vile people in Government MichealMartinTD LeoVaradkar EamonRyan
