@British_Airways I am due to be flying out of Heathrow tomorrow at 6.25pm - flight says delayed but no other info. Flying with my young daughter so keen to understand the position. Appreciate it’s a fluid situation but any idea what that delay might be/if we will be flying?

Speaking on modern families, @ScottJHalliday says: "We often deal in private law children cases with multifaceted and complicated fact patterns. We should not see LGBT+ issues in isolation - they need to be constructed and understood with some pre existing context." #YResConf23

#YResConf23 @BethanCleal says: "While surrogacy is a niche area, it's important we all have an understanding of the red flags to be aware of."

If the proposals ever become law of course - wonderful to be looking ahead to the future but hoping that it isn’t all theoretical, especially following the news this week from the gov’t that Parliamentary time doesn’t currently allow for the proposals to be taken forward!

Resolution@ResFamilyLaw

Discussing the Law Commission's proposals on surrogacy, @BethanCleal says: 'This sets out a new pathway to parenthood. The report is a step forward and has more structure for intended parents and will make the process smoother for many.' #YResConf23 lawcom.gov.uk/project/surrog…

I wrote my dissertation ⁦@unisouthampton⁩ on mitochondrial donation in 2013, which is the IVF technique described in this article. It’s so exciting to see that the first baby has been born successfully in the UK following this incredible treatment! theguardian.com/science/2023/m…

It’s been an exciting week this week with the long awaited Law Commission surrogacy law reform recommendations coming out on Wednesday. The Modern Family Lawyer Pod were keen to debrief and dissect so we got together on Zoom this afternoon. #surrogacy #surrogacylawyers

Fabulous to see the release of the final report this morning. While it may not go as far as hoped in some places (international surrogacy, double donation and restrictions around payments) it remains a step in the right direction! #surrogacy

Law Commission@Law_Commission

NEW: The Law Commission of England and Wales and @ScotLawCom have today published recommendations for reform to #surrogacy laws. Our reforms ensure that surrogacy agreements are well-regulated, offering more support and security. 📕 Read more here: lawcom.gov.uk/surrogacy-laws…

So grateful to @TimesMagazine for serialising my new book, Friendaholic. This is a deeply personal extract. I feel vulnerable sharing it, but I am very moved by those who have sent messages of kindness and who have walked this particular path. Thank you. thetimes.co.uk/article/9ead6d…
