NZ unveils plans to remove abortion restrictions

A pro-choice woman holding up a sign during a protest in Hollywood, California, the US, earlier this year. New Zealand currently lists abortion as a crime, but with a loophole that gives a woman access to a termination if two doctors agree that a pregnancy puts her in physical or mental danger. – EPA pic, August 5, 2019.

THE New Zealand government today released long-awaited plans to overhaul its abortion law, so that a termination is treated as a health issue and a woman’s choice rather than a crime. Under the proposal, a woman will have access to an abortion until 20 weeks’ pregnancy, and will only require a medical examination after that.
