Dear Colleague
Regulations to Extend the Statutory Storage Period for Embryos
I enclose, for information, a copy of the regulations which were laid in Parliament on 23 February by the Health Minister, John Horam MP to extend the statutory storage period for embryos. These regulations reflect the recommendations the Authority made to the Secretary of State for Health last year.
Also enclosed is a copy of a press release which the Authority distributed the day the regulations were laid.
If you have any questions, please contact Jennifer Woodside or Beatrice Heales at the number below.
Yours sincerely
Mrs Flora Goldhill
Chief Executive
