Abortion Crackdown Sparks Calls for Reform in Victoria
Dr Mass Cass, director of Footscray Trade Union Clinic, told a Melbourne radio program that at least 25,000 abortions are performed in Victoria yearly and that as many as 125 percent of married women may have had one or more abortions legally or illegally. He condemned the current law as effectively nonbinding and said prosecutions have driven women interstate or to unqualified abortionists, increasing complications and eroding public respect for law. The Australian Medical Association has urged reform, but the government has not acted.
