Poll is against three parent children



New pollings released by the charity CARE supports the concern expressed by MPs that the Government is rushing ahead with its proposal to allow the creation of three-parent children without public support or the necessary public safety tests.

A new ComRes poll, commissioned by CARE, demonstrates that more women oppose the introduction of highly controversial techniques to help reduce the chances of women with human mitochondrial disease passing it on to their children than support it.

The hugely controversial procedures that the Government is proposing are not legal in any other country in the world and up until this point every country that has considered them has ended up expressly prohibiting them. They are also expressly prohibited by international treaties like the Council of Europe Convention on Biomedicine.
