Creasy attempt to change abortion law ‘not supported by abortion providers’ – BPAS

Leading pro-choice charity says NC20 amendment to criminal justice bill ‘not right way’ to reform law

An attempt to change the law on abortion led by the Labour MP Stella Creasy is not supported by “any of the abortion providers in the country”, a leading pro-choice charity has said.

Rachael Clarke, the head of advocacy at the British Pregnancy Advisory Service (Bpas), said Creasy’s NC20 amendment to the criminal justice bill “is not the right way” to overhaul abortion laws.
