Proceeding contribution from Mike Weir (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 December 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Work and Families Bill.
Work and Families Bill
I understand what the Secretary of State says and very much support the Bill, but one small group—those who have a family by means of surrogacy—has been missed out, and I have taken up a constituency case with Ministers in the light of employment relations. The Bill covers only natural birth and adoption. Will he consider including that small group within the ambit of the rights?
