Assisted Human Reproduction Bill passes through Seanad
26.06.2024.
The Assisted Human Reproduction (AHR) Bill has passed through the Seanad, ending a long wait for many parents of children born through surrogacy to be legally recognised as such.
Only the biological fathers of children born via surrogacy have been recognised as the parents in Irish law. The mothers, or in the case of same sex male couples second fathers, have only been able to get guardianship of their children.
