[The role of different committees and individuals in the ethical position on the new methods of human reproduction].

Due to the research on assisted human reproduction and the application of its results we face new type ethical dilemma which had never existed before. The traditional system of ethical values does not provide a safe basis for judgement of our actions. One of the challenging questions is who has the right to authorize or prohibit performing different procedures. There might be necessary and justifiable taking into account the opinions of various bodies (professional committees, national and institutional ethical committees, religious bodies, parliamentary representatives and private organizations or persons). The authors introduce the activities of the role and importance of these bodies and investigate the position of the research and clinical professionals in obtaining permission for the application of ethically sound or less criticizable procedures. The importance of the provision of continuous and many-sided information for wide range of the society is underlined.
