On Wednesday 26 2024, Hon. Ben Hood MLC introduced a Private Members Bill titled Termination of Pregnancy (Terminations and Live Births) Amendment Bill 2024. This bill raises an important but challenging question: when does a child’s right to life begin to matter?


The bill ensures that after 28 weeks—the third trimester—if the mother chooses to terminate the pregnancy, the baby is delivered alive rather than intentionally ended before birth.

Even at this stage, a mother must still go through labour. The bill requires that the child be delivered alive instead of being subjected to a painful and violent injection of potassium chloride to stop its heart.

It’s crucial that we strike a balance between choice and responsibility. If a child can survive outside the womb, they should be given that chance. This bill is about protecting the right to life for viable babies at or beyond 28 weeks (seven months of pregnancy).

support the reform!
