As a result of the birth of Louise Brown, the Government, in 1982 set up the committee of Inquiry into Human Fertilisation and Embryology (The Warnock Committee). This committee made a number of recommendations including one that recommended the setting up of a body to regulate these procedures. The Medical Research Council and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists in the interim set up a voluntary body to regulate the centres doing IVF. This was called the Voluntary Licensing Authority (VLA) for Human in-vitro Fertilisation and Embryology. Centres were visited and licensed. This body regulated the centres until the statutory body the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) was formed in 1990.
由于路易丝·布朗的诞生，政府于1982年成立了人类受精与胚胎学调查委员会（沃诺克委员会）。该委员会提出了多项建议，其中一项建议是设立一个机构来监管这些程序。在此期间，医学研究理事会和皇家妇产科学院设立了一个自愿机构来监管进行体外受精的中心。这个机构被称为人类体外受精和胚胎学自愿许可管理局（VLA）。相关中心接受了检查并获得了许可。在1990年法定机构人类受精与胚胎学管理局（HFEA）成立之前，该机构一直对这些中心进行监管。
