Surrogates could receive $20,000 under proposed Australian law changes | 7NEWS

Описание: Proposed changes to Australian surrogacy laws would allow surrogate mothers to receive up to $20,000 in compensation for carrying other people's babies, with payments of $2,000 per month for pain and discomfort. The recommendations aim to encourage more domestic surrogacy arrangements and reduce the number of prospective parents travelling overseas to start families. Anna McKie from Surrogacy Australia, who has been a surrogate herself, discusses the need for national surrogacy laws, proper safeguards including counselling requirements, and the distinction between compensated and commercial surrogacy.
