Subscriber only Abortion will finally be decriminalised in South Australia after historic reforms were given the final tick of approval by state parliament. The Termination of Pregnancy Bill cleared the final hurdle on Tuesday afternoon as it passed the Upper House for a second time, officially becoming law. The Bill removes abortion from the criminal code and allows terminations after 22 weeks and six days gestation. SA was the last state in the country to decriminalise abortion. The Bill was subject to several days of rigorous debate in the Lower House last month, with MPs acting on their conscience rather than party directions.
