Fiji ‘wide open to abortion’
NZPA Suva Fiji was wide open to the establishment of abortion clinics by foreign doctors whose main interest would be to make money from them, a Christchurch gynaecologist and obstetrician, Mr K. D. Drayton, said in Suva. The country’s laws should more clearly set out the conditions under which abortions could be done, he said. Mr Drayton, a national vice-president of the New Zealand Society for the Protection of the Unborn Child, will speak at a public antiabortion meeting at Suva Civic Centre today. At the meeting, a newlyformed pro-life group will launch a campaign against the liberalisation of Fiji’s abortion laws, as suggested by a Senate select committee.
