Abstract
The government of Queensland, Australia, recently announced that there will be no reform of the state’s antiquated abortion laws during the current term of office. The announcement was in response to Australian pro-choice groups’ concerns over the prosecution of a young Queensland couple for procuring an abortion for the woman, allegedly using drugs bought overseas—charges carrying penalties of up to 7 years’ imprisonment.
