Surrogacy - the case of the German twins (and now an Israeli man and a French man) born via an Indian surrogate who were just recently allowed to go home to Germany after a two year battle illustrates the urgent need for legislation to regulate the growing surrogacy industry in India.

In a case involving twins born of a surrogate mother in India, it looks as if all will work out after a two month wait:
"Dan Goldberg and his children will arrive in Israel from India during the weekend, according to family members.
Good news on the homefront for the twins born in India to a single father from Israel. We have commented on this case several times for the last few weeks, and it looks as if the Prime Minister now is involved.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday a gay father waiting in India with his infant twin sons due to the Interior Ministry's refusal to administer a paternity test must be allowed to come back to Israel.
Israel/India-Dan Goldberg is still stuck in India waiting to bring his twins boys back home to Israel. Goldberg’s story is quickly gaining the support of many back home in Israel, including members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community, who held a spot protest to urge the members of the Ministry of Interiors to speed up the process of granting citizenship for the twins, and Yonatan Gher, who, like Goldberg, had a baby through surrogacy in 2008.
There are several interesting things going on in India relating to surrogacy these days. While we are not against going to India for surrogacy, please do your research and keep yourself informed of the ever changing surrogacy landscape that exists before you choose a surrogate in India.
