Amendment 277 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 16 a (new)
16 a. Reiterates that the denial of sexual and reproductive health and rights, including safe and legal abortion, is a form of gender-based violence and a violation of women’s and girls' fundamental human rights; reiterates that women and girls must have control over their bodies and sexualities; calls on all the Member States to guarantee comprehensive sexuality education and universal access to the full range of reproductive and sexual health services, including ready access to family planning, modern contraceptive methods and free, safe and legal abortion"; Is therefore deeply concerned that in some Member States sexual and reproductive rights of women are under threat, as in Poland the illegitimate Constitutional Tribunal ruled on 22 October 2020 to reverse long- established rights of Polish women entailing a de facto abortion ban, abortion is banned in Malta, medical abortion in early pregnancy is not legal in Slovakia and is not available in Hungary and access to abortion is also being eroded in Italy.
