Proceeding contribution from Lord Lansley (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 12 May 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill.


Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill

I am unclear about the basis for the Secretary of State's assertion that same-sex couples or, for that matter, single mothers are being denied access to treatment by regulated clinics as a result of the application of the ““need for a father”” test. What is his evidence for that proposition?
