The family courts have found themselves being asked to adjudicate the question of whether a homosexual couple who have bought a child from a surrogate mother can subsequently eradicate her from the child’s life.
The Daily Telegraph on 9 September reported the court case, heard at the Royal Courts of Justice, where a gay couple (known as "X" and "Y") sought to break the commercial agreement with a surrogate mother, and were trying to ban her from seeing the biological son (known as "Z") that she had sold to the couple.
