I move amendment No. 30:
In page 8, between lines 27 and 28, to insert the following:
“CHAPTER 1
Medical treatment lawful under this Act
Inevitable miscarriage
7.It shall be lawful to carry out a medical procedure in respect of a pregnant woman in the course of which, or as a result of which, a pregnancy is ended, where--(a) the medical procedure is carried out by an obstetrician at an appropriate institution, and
(b) subject to section 19, a medical practitioner, having examined the pregnant woman, has certified that an inevitable miscarriage is taking place.”.
