A comparative approach to the regulation of human embryonic stem cell research in Europe

Halliday, Samantha

Abstract

This article analyses the regulatory responses to human embryonic stem cell research adopted in England & Wales, the Netherlands and Germany. It is suggested that despite the widely diverging cultural, political and economic views found within the European Community, there is at least a minimum standard of consensus. Moreover, it is submitted that the European Community has a role not only in facilitating research at a community level, but also in informing the continuing debate at a national level that will be required to address the highlighted problems of the regulatory schemes adopted in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Germany
