HOW INTERESTED are our law makers in seeing that our laws are not abused?
It is crystal clear that the abortion laws are being abused. How can a policy of providing contraceptive availability, pills, condoms and free morning-after pills be followed by UK abortion figures of two hundred thousand abortions annually?
There is a refusal by health ministers and health authorities to acknowledge that the British 1967 Abortion Act is nothing but a rubber stamping of abortion for anyone who requests one.
The Welsh Assembly Government are set in achieving new law making powers, while at present they have no power to change the UK abortion law, at least they should have the power to make sure that the abortion law in Wales is being carried out strictly within the terms of the Abortion Act. Perhaps AMs who genuinely wish to see openness in politics might push for an investigation of abortion activities in Wales, especially where the private abortion sector are being funded by the Welsh NHS.
