[2001] EWCA Civ 472

A serving prisoner did not have the right to facilities that would enable the artificial insemination of his wife. The deprivation of such facilities was a justifiable interference with the prisoner's rights under Art.8 and Art.12 European Convention on Human Rights. * Leave to appeal to the House of Lords refused.
