Dagbladet claims that the KrF has taken bioteknologiloven as “hostage”. The truth is that the law now liberaliseres after not having been changed in 15 years.

” believe: the christian democratic party has has taken bioteknologiloven hostage Leader

the progress party has secured a majority for that the storage time for eggs is being expanded. The border today is five years. This expanded, so that women who are ill and therefore taking out the eggs to have children later, will have a far better time to decide. This is a modernization and liberalization of the law.

the progress party has also secured the that parents who have need for donor sperm and wants the same biological father to the children is ensured this in a greater degree. Today can a donor only donate sperm to a maximum of 8 children. This is being expanded, so that more parents can have the same biological father to their children.

the progress party has also been the green light for an intensification in the law at one point. Parents who want assisted reproduction will now have to sit with and omsorgsattest to be approved as parents. The state should not help to ensure that the perpetrators have children.

the Struggle for the abortloven should open a new debate about bioteknologiloven Debate

Bioteknologiloven is overmoden for modernization. The present coalition did not changes in bioteknologiloven, because the Ap was unable to find compromise with the Sp. The academic staff wanted changes in the legislation in a long time, and have been concerned that the law remains unchanged.

that said, I’m honest that the progress party would wanted further liberaliseringer, for example, when it comes to egg donation. It is a pity that Norwegian women must travel to Denmark to get treatment. At the same time, it is speculative of the Newspaper to claim that the new regjeringserklæringen change the current situation. Apart from liberaliseringene the progress party has fought in, is bioteknologiloven exactly the same as it has been since 2004.
