	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/03/2016 answer text <p>The Government has made no such assessment. Parental orders provide a mechanism to enable a couple who have entered into a surrogacy arrangement to become that child’s legal parents. There is no obligation to obtain a parental order but a couple who commission a surrogacy arrangement are advised and encouraged to do so in order to achieve a recognisable transfer of parenthood in the UK. In deciding whether to exercise its discretion and award a Parental order, the court has regard to all the facts of the case and the overriding importance of the welfare of the child throughout their life.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage question first answered 02/03/2016 12:02:03 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage
