Government Orders Independent Investigation into Sperm Donation Misconduct
Health Minister Sophie Hermans (VVD) announced an independent historical investigation into sperm donation practices from the mid-20th century until the 2025 legal changes limiting donations to twelve mothers. Funded with 650,000 euros following a proposal by MP Lisa Vliegenthart (PRO), the study aims to provide recognition for victims and improve future legislation. Results are expected by 2030, though the minister clarified her authority only covers clinical settings, not private arrangements.
