Surrogacy arrangements will continue to require good will on both parties and the genetic couple will have to seek a change in parentage through the court. Section 30 of the 1990 Act in order to issue a parental order, the following conditions must be applied.
The genetic (commissioning) couple must be married and over 18 years old.
One or both commissioning partners must be genetically related to the child.
One or both commissioning partners must be a UK resident.
The child must be in their care.
The host couple must have given their consent.
No money must have been paid.
Application for parental order should be made when the child is over 6 weeks old but less than 6 months old.

Your topic is very good. This day getting pregnant is not easy for some couples. Thus, learning about surrogate mothers might be very helpful to them. Wow, interesting information and nice blog.
