Abortion: Demonstrations
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether her Department plans to set a date to commence Section 9 of the Public Order Act 2023 to enforce safe access zones outside abortion clinics.
Answered by Jess Phillips
We are committed to commencing Section 9 of the Public Order Act 2023 as soon as possible. Protecting women’s rights is a priority for this government, and it is vital that anyone exercising their legal right to access abortion services is free from harassment and intimidation.
