The Minister of Health and Social Services is the designated authority for disclosing to any person born of a parental project involving surrogacy in which the woman or the person who gave birth to the child is domiciled outside Québec, or to his descendants in the first degree, if applicable, who apply to the Minister, the information and documents contained in the register kept by the Minister of Employment and Social Solidarity and that they are entitled to obtain under this subdivision. The Minister of Health and Social Services is also the designated authority for disclosing, to a physician who provides to the Minister a certificate confirming that the health of the person born of such a project, of the third person who contributed to it or of a close relative genetically linked to them, as the case may be, warrants the communication of medical information, information contained in that register which the physician is entitled to obtain under article 542.18. In addition, the Minister is responsible for entering in the register the information and wishes collected in the exercise of the Minister’s functions as the designated authority and for depositing the documents received in the register.
