The Australian parliamentary group on population and development, led by Labor senator Claire Moore and federal Liberal MP Mal Washer - who was one of those instrumental in having the abortion drug RU486 made available in Australia - has recommended to Foreign Affairs Minister Stephen Smith that aid must be directed more towards family planning, or reproductive health as it is termed, and that might include abortion. It is supported by the Australian Reproductive Health Alliance.
The pro-abortion mentality of these advocacy groups targets pregnancy as a dangerous condition, to be treated by "safe abortion" rather than targeting the disturbing lack of prenatal care, vaccines, trained midwives, centres equipped for obstetric complications and transportation to those centres, writes Angela Shanahan.
