Embryology

Lord Alton of Liverpool
asked Her Majesty's Government:

Further to the Written Answers by Lord Triesman on 26 November (WA 98–9), whether there has been any conclusive demonstration in any species of how somatic cell nuclear transfer can overcome the problems of immune rejection with patient-specific embryonic stem cells; and how the current level of state support for such research in humans has taken account of all relevant international conventions. [HL589]

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department for Innovation, Universities and Skills (Lord Triesman)
The information requested is being collated. I will write to the noble Lord in due course and place copies of my response in the Libraries.
