Get off the bill on abortion presented by the block Fresh Encounter: Abortion Bill (PC - New Meeting FJC)
"We want to restart the parliamentary debate"
Sabbatella, Ibarra, Heller, and Rivas Basteiro presented at the Women's Day project Bill to decriminalize abortion. Here, the details of the initiative and its arguments. Block
New Members present at the National Congress a bill for every woman can decide the abortion until 14 weeks of gestation. After that time, governed the same exceptions that currently provided for in Article 86 of the Penal Code for the non-punishable abortions. Nevertheless, and as the text clearly specifies that "in no case be punishable woman who causes the interruption of her own pregnancy or agrees that it shall cause the other."
"Bringing the underground to abortions save lives," said the gentleman from New Meeting Martin Sabbatella. In dialogue with Pagina/12, said the scope political, social, institutional and health that allow the discussion of "the right of women to decide over her own body" must "streamline existing projects, such as National Campaign for the Right to Abortion Legal, Safe and Free, to be submitted again next Tuesday, "create a responsible and thorough discussion in Parliament and consensus among all so that the problem is resolved and no more women die in Argentina."
The bill was introduced in Parliament on International Women's Day on 8 March last. Among its foundations, the deputies who signed the initiative, Sabbatella, Vilma Ibarra, Carlos Heller, Ariel Basteiro and Jorge Rivas-emphasized that the country "abortion complications are a major cause of maternal death." As argued in the text, "there is irrefutable evidence internationally that exemplifies that decriminalization and regulation of abortion has been an advance has meant a sharp reduction "in mortality among women.
advances in legislation proposed by the new Law on Sexual and Reproductive Health and Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy English were recovered in the text presented by Fresh Encounter. While the project provided a fixed antecedent pregnancy termination at 12 weeks gestation, the current initiative states that women can choose abortion before 14 weeks.
Beyond that time, women may have abortions in any of the following circumstances, namely: if the "product of the committee a crime against sexual integrity, while not feasible fetal life regardless of her body, "if there is danger to life or health of the woman, understood to health as defined by the World Health Organization Health as a state of complete physical, mental and social "and" when medically diagnosed with the impossibility of extrauterine life. " The project also seeks to ensure women's access to services and legal abortion procedures, safe and free in state health network of private and social works. And, in its Article 6 stipulates that medical or support staff "who have conscientious objections to intervene in medical procedures necessary for the voluntary interruption of pregnancy must inform the authorities of the institutions to which they belong within thirty days "after the date of enactment of the law.
"Decriminalizing abortion is a matter of debate that we have to institutionalize within the Congress," he told this newspaper Sabbatella and added: "It is a matter to be discussed, because abortion is very traumatic and it is clear that underground adds psychological condition and produces a greater risk in terms of health. "
Unlike what happened with the two cases of abortions not punishable in Comodoro Rivadavia, the draft new Meeting provides literally no situation that will require intervention or approval of judicial or administrative authorities to practice abortion. The initiative, the exception to the rule are girls under 14 who need the "consent of at least some of their legal representatives" to have an abortion.
anyway, and if approved the project in any case at risk the freedom of women who need and choose to terminate their pregnancies. A foundation: "There is no doubt that through the decriminalization of abortion practice is encouraged, but the recognition of sexual rights, reproductive and overall health of women as human rights. "
With the bill to legalize abortion, "we intend to restart the parliamentary debate and cross-cut all the blocks and parties, build consensus and pass a law to save lives," says the owner of Fresh Encounter, Martin Sabbatella.
