United States Funding For International Family Planning Agencies

EDM number 248 in 2000-01, proposed by Chris McCafferty on 24/01/2001.

That this House condemns the decision by the United States Administration to withdraw funds from international family planning groups that support abortion in any way, even if the funds would be used for a purpose entirely unrelated to abortion; notes that according to United Nations figures 78,000 women die and millions suffer injuries and illnesses as a result of unsafe abortions every year; further notes that the 1994 International Conference on Population and Development (ISPD) states that 'all women should have access to quality services for the management of complications rising from abortions'; and calls on the Government to fully support international family planning agencies and their work to save women's lives.

This motion has been signed by a total of 56 MPs.
