|History=In September 2014, draft laws were proposed by Health Minister Nikola Todorov to permit altruistic surrogacy, to "ensure that women may only carry a child on behalf of others for humane and altruistic reasons." He said, “It must be seen as an act of humanity and not as a business.” (See http://www.pravo.org.mk/documentDetail.php?id=802.)
