60 proposed amendments to abortion bill

New abortion laws for the Island face a tough time in the House of Keys next week - with 60 amendments tabled by MHKS.

Dr Alex Allinson's Abortion Reform Bill, designed to stop women being forced to travel to the UK for the procedure, will have its clauses considered on Tuesday. 

Proposed changes include a number of minor adjustments to language, for example swapping "treatment" for "activity".

Chief Minister Howard Quayle will ask for a clause preventing a termination being carried out on the grounds of gender.
