Surrogacy & ART

Men and non-binary people are excluded from accessing surrogacy in WA, and there are unnecessary barriers to egg sharing between partners. It is time to fix many issues that prevent LGBTIQA+ people and others with a genuine need from accessing Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) and surrogacy.

Initially promised for 2024, Labor introduced the reforms in 2025. This includes better access to surrogacy and other changes to make assisted reproductive laws fairer for LGBTIQA+ families (e.g. enabling reciprocal egg sharing).
