Doctors won't have to report women who use illegal abortion pills.
That's one of the outcomes from the House of Keys sitting this week, where MHKS continued to debate Dr Alex Allinson's Reform Bill.
Ramsey MHK Lawrie Hooper tabled an amendment so a GP or pharmacist don't have to report any women who buy illegal pills or seek abortion services.
Mr Hooper says he always wants women to feel safe and go to a GP if needed, and members approved his amendment.
The debate will continue after Easter.
