The regulation of commercial surrogacy in Australia: A harm analysis

(2020) The regulation of commercial surrogacy in Australia: A harm analysis. PhD thesis, Queensland University of Technology.

Description

This thesis analyses the harm unique to commercial surrogacy, concluding that the prohibition of commercial surrogacy in Australia is not justified. It critiques the regulation of commercial surrogacy in Australia against a framework based on Mill’s Harm Principle which holds that the only justification for intervention into the lives of individuals is for the prevention of harm to others.
