Inscription of abortion in the Constitution: green light from the law committee in the Senate, and after?. The influential Senate Law Committee has decided not to block the inclusion of voluntary termination of pregnancy in the basic law.

Abortion is not yet guaranteed by the Constitution, written in black and white in the fundamental law of the Republic. If the text voted on February 28 is modified (amputting the word “guaranteed” for example or increased by amendments providing freedom of action for doctors, etc.), the deputies will then also have to vote again.
