Proceeding contribution from Lord Neill of Bladen (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 28 January 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill [HL].


Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill [HL]

My Lords, am I right in understanding that ““long term commitment”” means that the minimum period would be the entire period while the child remains a child? Most parents find that they have a commitment well beyond that point, but would that be the minimum that would be understood by ““long term commitment””?
