Health (Assisted Human Reproduction) Bill 2022: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2024-06-20
============================================================

Rónán Mullen (IND), National University of Ireland

If there are provisions in the surrogacy agreement, presumably it provides for the payment of reasonable expenses and so on. Are there other elements of the surrogacy agreement that might depend on whether the surrogate has the child or not? Could there be elements of the agreement that would depend on whether the surrogate has a child or not? I am trying to establish whether anything could operate to overbear the will of the surrogate mother in this situation.
