Queensland’s Termination of Pregnancy Act passed in October, 2018, under a Labor State Government.

It one of the most brutal and extreme abortion laws in the world. It's to our state’s great shame that a full-term healthy baby of a healthy mother can be legally aborted for any reason - such is the sick extremity of our laws.

• Abortion “on request” (no questions asked) to 22 weeks gestation.
• Abortion from 22 weeks up to birth for any reason provided a second “doctor” signs off. But the second “doctor” can be a second abortionist - there is no requirement for impartiality. The "sign-off” by the second doctor can be merely a phone call or email - there is no requirement for the second approving doctor to see the woman. There is no legal penalty if there is no second doctor - a law without a penalty is no law at all. 
• Sex-selective abortion is legal.
• Doctors are compelled to refer for abortion. 
• Absolutely NO “safeguards” for women considering abortion. 
• No ban on the particularly brutal partial-birth abortion technique.
• Babies born alive in failed abortions are left to die.
• No comprehensive data reporting on abortion.
• No requirement to anaesthetize a baby prior to an abortion (including no pain relief given to late-term babies prior to an abortion).

We are determined that these laws will not stand. Join the fight today.
