Abstract

This report addresses the issue of late termination of pregnancy, defined in Australia as abortions
performed at or after 20 weeks gestation. Late terminations are a rare and stigmatised procedure
that can be challenging to discuss. Too often, the rhetoric and narratives that surround this
procedure are dominated by opponents of abortion who vilify the patients who seek them and the
health care workers who provide them.
