The year commenced with the release of ACART’s paper Advice on Aspects of Assisted Reproductive Technology: A consultation paper on policy issues for public consultation. This was followed by the issuing of two new guidelines for ECART, the delivery of advice to the Minister on pre-implantation genetic diagnosis and embryo splitting, and the development of new guidelines for embryo donation (to be issued to ECART in late 2008). The year closed with the release of two consultation papers: advice on the use of frozen eggs and proposed guidelines for pre-implantation genetic diagnosis. Each of these pieces of work required working through the detailed processes set down in the Human Assisted Reproductive Technology (HART) Act.
