MPs to vote on 'three person' babies

MPs can vote on whether IVF babies can be born by creating embryos with genetic material from three people.

Jo Coburn heard from Doug Turnbull, who pioneered the research into the procedure, before a debate between Conservative MP Jacob Rees Mogg and Lord Ridley, who writes about science.

The UK could become the first country to introduce laws, but it has sparked an ethical debate and senior Church figures have called for the procedure to be blocked.
