Liberalization of abortion and fetal protection regulations

The act amends the Criminal Code regarding abortion. Doctors, nurses, and midwives will not commit a crime if they terminate a pregnancy when the woman's health or life is at risk, or when there is a high probability of severe, irreversible fetal defect or incurable disease threatening its life. The changes also protect medical staff when damage to the fetus results from necessary medical procedures.
Key points
New legal grounds for abortion: threat to woman's health or life, severe irreversible fetal defect, or incurable disease threatening fetal life.
Legal protection for doctors, nurses, and midwives performing the procedure in these cases.
Protection from criminal liability when fetal damage results from necessary life-saving medical procedures.
