International egg donation β how altruistic donor eggs from Ukraine and Georgia reach Australian intended parents legally and ethically.
Stephen Page, Fertility lawyer and accredited family law specialist at Page Provan, talks to Melissa Quinn, National Manager at Manor Baby, an international egg donor bank sourcing donors from Georgia and Ukraine.
In this episode:
- How Australia's altruistic donation laws apply to overseas egg donors, and why they aren't being paid or exploited
- The extra layers of counselling international donors go through, on top of Australia's ANZICA requirements
- How family limits and future donor-conceived child rights apply even when donors are based overseas
- How intended parents connect with an international egg donor bank through their IVF clinic or directly
- Why Australia's eight different state and territory IVF regulatory systems create unnecessary complexity, and the case for one national law
