Law Commission of England and Wales

The Law Commission of England and Wales is undertaking a joint review into the law of surrogacy with the Scottish Law Commission. 

The Law Commissions are statutory independent bodies. We aim:

• to ensure that the law is as fair, modern, simple and as cost-effective as possible
• to conduct research and consultations in order to make systematic recommendations for consideration by Parliament, and
• to codify the law, eliminate anomalies, repeal obsolete and unnecessary enactments and reduce the number of separate statutes.
