...The BMA acknowledges that the requirement to consider the welfare of the child before treatment is offered is regarded by some people as discrimination against those who are infertile on the grounds that those who conceive naturally are not prevented from reproducing, even if there is a clear risk to a future child....
I found this statement particularly interesting, and a potential legal loophole.

If couples who conceive naturally are not forced to have their embryos inspected and rejected by the law, then why are infertile couples stuck with this discriminatory restriction?
