Commons ChamberI do not believe that that is what is being proposed, but I shall deal with my hon. Friend’s very specific point later in my speech.
I know from a meeting that I attended before the debate that the HFEA has said, “PNT involves genetically modifying a human embryo”.
That point was raised in an earlier intervention. I think it is clear from reports following reviews by the expert panel that it has already been specifically addressed, but I shall deal with it in more detail later.
