Govt planning laws for surrogate mothers
Press Trust of India
Tuesday, June 24, 2008, (New Delhi)
The government will bring together legal and medical experts on Wednesday in an effort to formulate regulatory guidelines for surrogate mothers.

With increasing number of women opting to rent a womb, the Ministry of Women and Child Development has planned the consultation programme.

An area of concern for experts is that many young girls are opting to become surrogate mothers. So, issues like minimum age limit and health conditions that need to be considered will come up for discussions.

"There is an increasing number of cases where women are opting to become surrogate mothers. We will examine the legal provisions to provide social and emotional security to women in such cases," said Priya Hingorani, a legal expert.

While expressing concern over various shortcomings in guidelines of surrogacy and assisted reproductive technologies, the National Commission for Women (NCW) raised the issues about two months ago with the Ministry.
