Abstract: 
In its recent report Human Reproductive Technologies and the Law, the House of Commons' Select Committee on Science and Technology insisted that the United Kingdom 'does not take a purely insular view' on sex selection but to carefully consider the impact on other countries before allowing changes to current legislation. True, no country is an island, not even the British Isles. Still, outlawing a harmless practice in Great Britain because of its alleged harmful effects in other countries is bad public policy.
