STOP HUMAN CLONING CAMPAIGN

 

Stem Cells IVF

 

Senator Natasha Stott Despoja (Democrat) and Senator Lynn Allison (Liberal) are each planning legislation based on the Lockhart Inquiry into human cloning and embryonic stem cell research. This inquiry proposed:

1. Use a woman’s donated human egg, removing the nucleus and fusing it with a cell from an adult person to produce an embryonic clone of that person, i.e. somatic cell nuclear transfer;

2. Take an animal egg, remove the nucleus and then fuse it with a cell from an adult human person to make an embryo, an animal-human hybrid;

3. Use human genetic material and genetic material from two or more animal species to create a chimera, another form of animal-human embryo;

4. Use genetic material from multiple women and men to create an embryo with more than two parents; and

5 Widening access by scientists to fertilized embryos for embryonic stem cell research.

These proposals represent gross violations of the dignity of the embryo.
