How Britain's Abortion Act Is Functioning
In London an abortion can be obtained in one day and on credit if needed under Britain's liberal act. About 50,000 legal abortions have occurred since 1968, with private clinics performing roughly 40 percent. bed shortages in NHS hospitals drive an estimated 60,000 illegal backstreet procedures annually. The act allows a physician to approve with one other doctor's concurrence under three conditions including risks to the woman's health and potential fetal disability. Foreigners may seek private clinics, as there are no residency or nationality requirements for private care.
