MPs push for ban on paid surrogacy under new Reproductive Bill
Under the Bill, anyone found engaging in paid surrogacy or trading in human embryos could face a fine of up to Sh10 million or a jail term of up to ten years, or both. The law also bars medical professionals from facilitating such transactions, warning that doctors and embryologists who violate the law will face the same punishment.
