Kyiv • UNN
Two bills have been registered in the Ukrainian parliament to regulate the storage and use of reproductive cells of fallen soldiers. The bills are aimed at preventing clinics from disposing of frozen biomaterial.
As of the morning of January 29, the Verkhovna Rada has registered two bills that should regulate the legislation on the storage and use of reproductive cells of deceased soldiers. This was reported by MP Yaroslav Zheleznyak, according to UNN.
As of this morning, two draft laws have already been registered in the Rada to address the issue of storage and use of reproductive cells of deceased war veterans. According to my information, the following initiatives are still pending
Context
At the end of November, the Verkhovna Rada passed a law requiring Ukrainian clinics to dispose of reproductive cells of fallen soldiers stored in cryobanks starting in March. Women began to raise the alarm, and the Servant of the People party promised to vote for the necessary changes to prevent this from happening.
The Ministry of Health said that cryobanks will not dispose of frozen biomaterial from the dead military and assured that they are already working with MPs to resolve this issue.
