Andrew Urquhart discusses the complex bioethical concerns surrounding surrogacy, particularly in New Zealand. They highlight the risks involved for surrogate mothers, including medical and psychological complications, and the potential for exploitation, even in altruistic arrangements.

Urquhart emphasises the importance of considering the child's perspective and the implications of informed consent in surrogacy agreements. They advocate for a thorough examination of New Zealand's laws in relation to human rights, particularly concerning the rights of both mothers and children, suggesting that society should engage in meaningful conversations about the risks and regulations of surrogacy.
