Abstract
A Federal Act N 180-ФЗ on "Biomedical cell products" passed on June 8, 2016 by the State Duma and on 15 June, 2016 by the Federation Council of the Russian Federation, came into force on January 1, 2017. To the best of our knowledge, and as evidenced by publications in this journal [1, 2], any legal document has moral implications, particularly a document regulating the attitudes and behavior towards all living things. In this relation the new act is viewed as a great step towards the development of bioethics in Russia. A number of bioethical issues involved in the previous act №323-ФЗ on «The basic issues of protection of human health in the Russian Federation» and №61-ФЗ «Handling of medicines» did not receive appropriate elucidation. The new act contains Article 14 on «Ethical expertise» which sets standards absent from act №323-ФЗ and recapitulates the substance of Article 17 of act №61-ФЗ. On the other hand, questions regarding organization of ethical expertise arise and require further discussion when developing subordinate local acts to ensure effective implementation of the new federal act in medical practice.
