  • Summary

    This chapter presents a discussion between Siladitya Bhattacharya, Zoe Williams Kate Brian, Stephen Hillier, Roger Gosden, Susan Bewley, David Barlow and Peter Braude. Each partticipant presents his/her points on the message that needs to go out to people that there is a finite time over which women are able to reproduce. This exercise would have to be with government support because there needs to be some kind of neutrality. According to Williams, it is well to decide that full-time childcare should be available freely to people in order to increase the birth rate, but this is secondary really because the ethical position is that this provision helps people who need money. The HFEA [Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority] statistics show there are more single women having IVF. The Government must be involved, but it is implementation that must be worked on.
