No surrogacy law likely until after 2018 election: official
A much-needed new surrogacy law might take more than a year to be adopted, an official at the General Secretariat of the National Committee for Counter Trafficking said on March 2 on the sidelines of a stakeholder conference. A senior official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, citing the topic’s increasing politicisation, explained that while a new law was in the making, its completion might take until after national elections in 2018. “We’re trying hard, but everyone is busy with elections,” they said. “It’s quite controversial… and politicians don’t want to pass anything before the elections.”
