TAILIEUCHUNG - Human Assisted Repr oductive T echnology (Storage) Amendment Bill

The distinctive features of reproduction in squirrels are the lack of allometric influences on the duration of reproductive investment; the strong allometric influences on offspring mass; and a trade-off between number and size of young, suggesting an important developmental component to reproduction. Lengths of gestation and lactation do not vary with body size but neonatal and weaning mass do. Apparently, the major constraint on reproduction in squirrels is not resources per se (food, calories, minerals, or water) but rather the length of time such resources are available. Squirrels adjust growth rate to fit the timing of resource abundance. Within the familial reproductive pattern, arboreal squirrels invest. | Human Assisted Reproductive Technology Storage Amendment Bill Government Bill As reported from the Health Committee Commentary Recommendation The Health Committee has examined the Human Assisted Reproductive Technology Storage Amendment Bill and recommends that it be passed with the amendments shown. Introduction This bill would amend four sections of the Human Assisted Reproductive Technology Act 2004. The first section relates to provisions for storing human eggs and sperm gametes and embryos. One of the bill s purposes is to clarify that the 10-year limit on storage would start when the Act came into force or when storage of a gamete or embryo began whichever was the later date. Secondly the bill clarifies the powers and duties that the ethics committee Ethics Committee on Assisted Reproductive Technology would take on when considering approvals for storage. Thirdly the bill would remove any doubt that the advisory committee Advisory Committee on Assisted Reproductive Technology could give advice or issue guidelines to 88 2 Human Assisted Reproductive Technology Storage Amendment Bill 2 Commentary the ethics committee on matters that needed to be taken into account when considering whether to approve a longer storage period. In practice this means that the advisory committee would give advice or issue guidelines to determine how the ethics committee would make decisions. The fourth section would extend the enforcement powers held by authorised persons so that they could also be exercised with regard to the storage of gametes and embryos. Issues raised in submissions All of the submissions we received either supported or did not oppose the intent of the bill to clarify the 10-year storage limit and remove doubt about the roles of the relevant committees in extending the storage limit. We recommend the following changes on the basis of the submissions we received. Provisions for storing human gametes and embryos Grace period after the expiry of the 10-year storage
