Debate on the stories behind the headlines. Presented by Sue Cameron.
Eleven MPs from both main parties serving on the Commons' Science and Technology Committee have spent the past year examining advances in genetic research. In the course of their investigation a difference of opinion has developed over whether drug companies should be allowed to claim ownership of genes that they have identified. Most of the Conservative committee members believe that patenting genes is necessary in order to attract private investment, while
Labour members question the morality of patenting and its impact on future research. Anne Perkins goes behind the scenes of the committee's work and discovers how MPs react to this moral dilemma.
