Changes to surrogacy laws are the focus of a new review being conducted by New Zealand’s Law Commission, which is examining in particular what it refers to as the ‘legal confusion’ regarding legal parentage of babies born to surrogate mothers.

In order to address the harms of commercial surrogacy, there have been recent proposals made in the UK and the Netherlands to regulate surrogacy proactively via pre-conception authorisation of surrogacy agreements (PASA).
