Russell Kennedy Law Graduate Emma Jacobs has had an article published in the Australian Health Law Bulletin titled ‘New reforms: The implementation of further recommendations of the Review of Assisted Reproductive Treatment legislation by Michael Gorton AM’.
The article provides an overview of new legislation that has been passed by the Victorian Government to amend Assisted Reproductive Treatment (ART) legislation to implement further recommendations of the Review of Assisted Reproductive Treatment legislation, which was conducted by Russell Kennedy Principal Michael Gorton AM (the Gorton Review).
The Gorton Review initiated legislative change in 2019 and 2020, removing various discriminatory requirements and creating more inclusive legislation. The further reforms introduced in 2021 intend to address some of the remaining discriminatory aspects of Victoria’s existing ART legislation, aiming to further strengthen the ART sector and increase accessibility to ART for all Victorians.
