The Australian Law Reform Commission has been tasked with conducting "a review of Australian surrogacy laws, policies and practices to identify legal and policy reforms".

Last month, Women's Forum Australia made a submission to the ALRC on its Review of Surrogacy Laws Issues Paper. The next round of submissions will be open when the ALRC publishes its Discussion Paper in November, with its final report and recommendations due to the Attorney-General by 29 July 2026.
