Archbishop’s statement re the amendment of the Greens’ abortion BillI am thankful to those MPs who upheld freedom of conscience for doctors and amended the Greens’ abortion bill in the NSW Upper House.
But the burden will now also fall on nurses and midwives to be involved in something at odds with their vocation.
So, I urge lower house MPs to protect the unborn and reject the bill entirely.
Archbishop Kanishka Raffel
