Minister Confirms Hospitals Will Perform Late Abortions
Dutch Health Minister Sophie Hermans confirmed that several hospitals will conduct late-term abortions for women pregnant between 22 and 24 weeks as part of an exploratory phase to improve care accessibility. While the SGP and PVV parties expressed shock and demanded restrictions, Hermans stated this is not a pilot program or legal expansion but a way for hospitals to gain experience within existing laws without compelling staff participation.
