This instrument establishes a process by which research bodies working within the fields of health and social care, carrying out research involving assisted reproduction treatments and services, may apply to the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) to access identifying information held by the HFEA, on a database register, about patients who have undergone assisted reproduction treatments and services and any resulting offspring, where it is not practicable to obtain consent to the disclosure of this information from the persons to whom the information relates.
