The regional government is in the process of introducing a package of measures in the field of biomedicine and stem cell research. This is pioneer legislation not just in Spain but also in Europe. Within a year Andalusians will be entitled to free treatment to detect and prevent possible genetically based illnesses. The Andalusian Parliament has already approved Spain’s first law to control biomedical research with stem cells for therapeutic ends. The Genetics Law, currently being processed, will allow genetic analysis for health care or biomedical research and controls the DNA bank system.
