References in that document to changes planned for 2008 imply that this is one piece of legislation that will not be rushed through. The government decided that some issues - such as the use of embryos for research - are firmly settled and will not form part of the review, whilst other fundamental issues, such as the role and scope of the regulatory body, are open for debate. While much of the consultation covered detailed aspects of the legislation and its interpretation, which are principally of interest to those practising in the UK, other issues were raised that are of more global interest. The UK, like a number of other countries, has recently changed its rules so that donors are no longer to be anonymous and offspring can, on reaching the age of maturity, obtain identifying information about the donor.
