Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they intend to consider approving women's homes as designated areas for medical abortions, as recommended by World Health Organisation.

Abortions must be performed under the legal framework set by the 1967 Abortion Act. The Government’s priority is to ensure women who require abortion services have access to safe, high quality care. We currently have no plans to recommend that the home be approved as a class of place under the Act.
