"content": "With due respect to the Member and all women out there who would like to be assisted, I feel that it is also important that we look at what the other countries are doing and we fit in. We also need to look at what the Ministry of Health has worked so hard for, that is, the Health Bill. The Ministry has dedicated a whole chapter on matters of reproduction. In Bulgaria and Cyprus, they have a general law. In China, there is no law, but they allow IVF. We do not want to go that way. We are saying that we want it to be incorporated in the Health Bill. In Denmark and Estonia they call it Assisted Fertilisation and Protection of the Embryo Law. In Finland, they call it Acts on Assisted Reproduction. In France, there is no law. In Hungary, it exists, but it is a general law. In Ireland, South Africa, Malta and Poland, they have general law. So, why is it that we choose as Parliament to go for IVF on its own yet so many women will be prescribed a different approach? That is our position."
