The Review of the Health (Regulation of Termination of Pregnancy) Act 2018 commenced in line with statutory and Government commitments in December 2021. The aim of the Review is to assess the effectiveness of the operation of the legislation and was conducted in a fair and transparent manner.

The Review was led by an independent chair and while the Department provided administrative support, engagements and meetings in relation to the content of the Report were conducted by the Chair. Therefore, the department does not hold record of such engagements requested in this PQ.
