Proceeding contribution from Crispin Blunt (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 20 May 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HC) and Debate on bill on Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill [Lords].


Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill [Lords]

As a parent who found himself in circumstances that could have been caught by new clause 8, I find it patronising, onerous and unnecessary. It would probably do more damage than good. What position does the hon. Gentleman think parents, who could be caught by new clause 8, are in? The Minister has made it clear that guidelines already cover it and I sincerely hope that the hon. Gentleman will not press the new clause.
