Illegal For Men To Process and Distribute Sperm

YOU know what you’re doing. Cut it out. It’s illegal:

Since July 2007 it has been a criminal offence to “procure, test, process or distribute” any gametes (sperm and eggs) intended for human application without a licence from the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority.

Can the Guardian be right? Is it illegal to process and distribute sperm? Do men need a licence..?
