Proceeding contribution from Baroness Royall of Blaisdon (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 3 December 2007. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill [HL].


Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill [HL]

I note the deep concern expressed by noble Lords. The Government are seeking only to ensure that there is legal clarity. There is currently no legal clarity in the definitions mentioned. However, the Government are very willing to discuss these matters further, and I suggest that after Committee stage we have an in-depth conversation about them before Report.
