Surrogacy in Iceland?

A working group at the Ministry of Welfare presented a draft of a new legislation legalizing non profit surrogacy in Iceland at the end of November 2014.

Non-governmental organizations and civil societies were invited to comment on this legislation before it goes up before Althingi. The Icelandic Women’s Rights Association sent a brief to the ministry, reiterating our opposition to surrogacy.

The brief can be read here, alas, only in Icelandic.
