Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Jim Dobbin (Labour and Co-operative Party), on Wednesday, 7 March 2012, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 29 members in total.
GENDER ABORTION
That this House is seriously concerned over claims that some doctors have agreed to facilitate abortions on the grounds of the gender of unborn babies and were willing to falsify abortion notification forms to hide that fact; welcomes the recent reaction of the Secretary of State for Health that such actions are illegal and immoral and that an investigation is being launched; and urges the Secretary of State to ensure that the investigation encompasses the records of all abortion clinics, whether NHS or private, and gives a clear statement that such practices cannot be allowed to occur in a civilised society.
