Edward Argar reacts after opposition MPs secured an urgent question on ‘antiquated laws’ of abortion regulations
Abortion law in England and Wales “has been settled” by parliament and the government does not intend to change it, a justice minister has told MPs after a woman was jailed for taking abortion pills after the legal limit.
Edward Argar was speaking after opposition MPs secured an urgent question on the 162-year-old legislation underpinning abortion regulations in part of the UK, during which there were cross-party calls for an overhaul of the “antiquated laws”.
