UK doctors routinely broke law on abortion

NHS doctors routinely broke law on abortion | News | The Christian Institute: Doctors at 14 NHS hospitals have been systematically breaking the law by pre-signing abortion consent forms, an investigation by the health watchdog has found.

Under the current law, two doctors must sign a referral form before a woman can go ahead with an abortion. But an investigation by the Care Quality Commission discovered hospitals using pre-signed forms, or forms on which the approval signatures had been photocopied, thereby allowing the second doctor to make the decision on their own.
