Disposition versions
541.32. Once the prior authorization has been obtained, the surrogacy agreement, accompanied by the information concerning the profile of the woman or the person who has agreed to give birth to the child and the documents determined by government regulation, must, before being signed, be submitted to the Minister of Health and Social Services for authorization, according to the terms prescribed by such a regulation.
If the Minister considers that the agreement is compliant, the Minister issues an authorization to proceed with the parental project involving surrogacy.
A copy of the signed agreement is filed with the Minister, together with the necessary documents, by the person alone or the spouses who formed the project. Any modification to the agreement must be authorized by the Minister.
