Lack of regulation in surrogacy law is ‘tragic’: expert
Dr Mary Wingfield, a consultant obstetrician gynaecologist at the National Maternity Hospital, Holles St, and a director at the Merrion Fertility Clinic, was giving evidence in a landmark action brought on behalf of twins born to a surrogate who wish to have their genetic mother’s name on their birth cert.
She said the lack of regulation in the area has resulted in people such as those at the centre of this case taking High Court actions to resolve various issues.
