§ Miss WiddecombeTo ask the Secretary of State for Health what the timetable is for the review of the law on surrogacy; and if the public and interested bodies will be able to make submissions to the review team. [6433]
§ Ms JowellWe expect the review team to issue a consultation document to a wide range of interested bodies later this summer, with copies being available to anyone else who asks for it. We shall make an announcement about the availability of the document and details of how to obtain a copy at the time it is issued. Following a sufficient period to allow responses to be made, we expect to receive the team's report early next year.
