The Home Secretary announced on 26 November that she has ordered a review into harassment and intimidation near abortion clinics following concerns about the aggressive tactics of some campaigners.

The Review will gather evidence from police forces, healthcare providers, local authorities, from representative groups of the clients and also those engaging in protests and demonstrations.
