The European Union emphasizes the need to control the number of donors. Having more than 70 step-siblings is unethical.

Supported by France, Hungary, the Netherlands, and Spain, this initiative raises concerns about 'super sperm donors' who can be biological fathers to hundreds of children.

A donor suspected of being the father of over 550 children in the Netherlands has become a symbol of these concerns. This situation shows that the effects on donors and children born from them cannot be ignored.

Belgian Health Minister Frank Vandenbroucke stated that a quota should be established across the EU. He expressed that this system can only work with a comprehensive cross-border registration mechanism.

The European Commission reminded that regulating the number of children per donor is the responsibility of national authorities. They noted that this issue is a recurring source of concern.
