Parents' baby gender selection 'unethical'
A report by the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) said it had come to the conclusion that sex selection should only be used to avoid serious gender-linked disorders, such as haemophilia.
British Health Secretary John Reid, the British Medical Association, the British Fertility Society and the Human Genetics Alert were among those who welcomed the HFEA's recommendations, which will now be considered by the British government.
