The opponents of the proposed law to decriminalize and relaxing the conditions of abortion were granted Thursday to consult with the Council of State on new amendments. They were 55 members of parliament, from the N-VA, CD&V, CDH and of the Vlaams Belang, to support the request.

“In such a matter, we cannot take any risk”, has justified the group leader of CD&V, Servais Verherstraeten, listing the points where, according to him, problems still arise.
