Proceeding contribution from Baroness Tonge (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 15 January 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill [HL].


Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill [HL]

My Lords, I thank the Government for tabling these amendments on Report. We tabled an amendment in Committee on this subject, when I drew attention to the fact that there was some concern about adequate training in embryo storage, and generally in embryo research techniques. The noble and scientific Lords were, I think, in slight disarray on the matter then, and I did not get their full support. However, I understand that they are totally supportive now. I therefore thank the Government for bringing it back on Report.
