Reaffirming the position of François Hollande, the prime minister, said yesterday that surrogacy (GPA) “is and will be banned in France.”
“Assuming” to reconsider its own position taken there three years, Manuel Valls announced in an interview with La Croix that France “totally excludes” allow “automatic transcription” acts of parentage of children born through surrogacy abroad, “because it would be to accept and normalize the GPA. “
This focuses the debate after the conviction in June of France by the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR), because of his refusal to transcribe acts performed in the United States as a result of births by surrogate.
The government had refused to appeal the judgments of the European Court, sparking protests and the right side of the AKI for all , which has made her GPA new workhorse.
“An intolerable practice”
M. Valls judge that surrogacy is “an intolerable practice marketing people and commodification of women’s bodies.”
France has also promote “international initiative” that could lead ” that countries that allow the GPA does not extend the benefit of this mode of reproduction to nationals of countries that prohibit it, “said the Prime Minister.
Manuel Valls, who in 2011 s’ had expressed support for the GPA, said yesterday at Matignon, “assume” this change on a “touchy subject.”
As for his opposition to the “automatic transcription” acts of affiliation, it does not mean it is open to a transcript in each case, he has said.
“No, today we’re definitely not there. It should answer the questions put by the Court concerning nationality, inheritance, background on what should happen to these children, “said Valls, depending on who these children born to surrogate mothers have good” parentage and identity but located abroad. “
Contrary to the decision of the European Court
But the refusal of Prime Minister transcribe acts of affiliation is a” wishful thinking ” ruled the lawyer Patrice Spinosi, who did condemn France by the ECHR.
“Since the ECHR decision becomes final, the French government has little choice.”
As for assisted reproductive technology (ART) for couples of lesbians currently prohibited, the government “will not go away” so he will not have the advice of the National Advisory Committee ethics, expected before the end of the year.
