Wither the HFEA and the fate of donor registers?
This comment considers the proposals to disband the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) under the auspices of the Government's review of Arm's-Length Bodies in the NHS. The comment highlights some of the difficulties this might raise in relation to the Register of Information held by the HFEA, and urges the need for greater consideration of the most appropriate homes for information, advice and services for donor-conceived persons in the UK.
