KEY’S BILL – A PASSPORT TO SUICIDE
The President of Right to Life Australia, Mrs Margaret Tighe, said today that the amendments being put forward by S.A. M.P. Stephanie Key, for her euthanasia bill will not, in any way, diminish its dangers.
“It is greatly concerning that the Victorian Minister for Health has “no religious or ethical objection” to euthanasia, which is patient killing,” said Dr Katrina Haller, Chief Executive Officer of the Right to Life Australia.
Queensland Late Term abortions will Skyrocket with Rob Pyne MP bill
Queensland MP Rob Pyne’s Health (Abortion Law Reform) Amendment Bill 2016 Bill tabled 17/8/16 http://www.parliament.qld.gov.au/Documents/TableOffice/TabledPapers/2016/5516T1292.pdf
is purely a rehash of his bill introduced only 3 months ago. This bill-again-will provide no element of protection for the preborn child – which presumably Mr Pyne needed to “reassure” most Queenslanders appalled at Late Term abortions. If Mr Pyne MP looks to Victoria for the construction of his new bill, he should be aware of the outcomes in that state since decriminalisation. So-called safeguards to “limit the numbers” of unborn babies killed have not been effective in Victoria.
It seems Mr Pyne MP has also not been listening to testimony of doctors advising that women seeking abortions for psychosocial reasons are even more at risk of severe psychological problems after their abortions.

"Babies born alive and left to die have increased “ said Dr Katrina Haller, Chief Executive Officer of the Right to Life Australia. She was commenting on the 2012/2013 Victorian Report of the Consultative Council on Obstetric and Paediatric Mortality and Morbidity, which has now been published.The Council reported the results of abortions performed after 20 weeks gestation – late term abortions.Dr Haller continued, “This is a sad and sorry state, where mothers feel, increasingly that they have to destroy their preborn babies in order to live in our society”.
