Creating a human embryo by cloning to provide tissue for transplants should
be allowed, say the British government’s advisers on genetics and reproduction.
This would require a change in the law. The advice appeared this week in a
report by the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) and the Human
Genetics Advisory Commission, which also says reproduction by cloning should
remain banned. “What’s on the agenda now is cloning of tissues and cells,” says
Anne McLaren of the Wellcome-Cancer Research Campaign Institute in Cambridge, a
member of the HFEA. Embryos created for this purpose would not be allowed to
develop for more than 14 days.
