Abortion in Spain is legal with some restrictions. Abortion during the first trimester is legal on demand. However, abortion during the second trimester is legal for serious risk to the health of the woman or fetal deformity. In December 2013, Spain's cabinet approved a draft law that would ban abortion except in cases of rape, and instances where the health of the mother is at serious risk. The proposal prompted controversy and had yet to be approved by parliament. In September 2014, Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy announced that the government was withdrawing the draft law due to lack of consensus.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=The Guardian )〕 == Overview == Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy Induced Abortion in Spain is regulated under Title II of the Organic Law 2/2010 of sexual and reproductive health and abortion.〔(Ley Orgánica 2/2010 de salud sexual y reproductiva y de la interrupción voluntaria del embarazo ).〕 This law legalizes the practice of abortion during the first 14 weeks of pregnancy. The law came into force on 5 July 2010.〔 The previous regulation —Organic Law 9/1985〔(Ley Orgánica 9/1985 )〕— decriminalized abortion on several points. The conservative People's Party in June 2010 filed an action against several provisions of law to the Constitutional Court, which has not yet been pronounced. In the electoral program for the general election held on 20 November 2011 the People's Party included modifying the law on abortion.〔(El PP llevará al Constitucional la futura ley de plazos del aborto ), El País, 12 February 2009〕〔(El Constitucional admite el recurso del PP contra la ley del aborto ), El País, 30 June 2010〕 In Spain, induced abortion, most recently called abortion, has been a practice totally banned, illegal and punishable except for a period of the Second Republic and from 9/de Law Act 1985 and the last 2 / 2010 which, to varying degrees, have decriminalized abortion. For authors such as Ibanez and Garcia Velasco, prohibition and criminalization of abortion did not prevent about 100,000 abortions from happening a year.〔Ibáñez y García Velasco〕 From this point of view, punishment would not solve the problem as hiding contributed decisively in the death of women who practiced abortion in conditions of illegality and legal and sanitary uncertainty. In 1976, according to the Supreme Court, between 200 and 400 women died from illegal abortions (needed ). Moreover, advocates of legally induced abortion argue that the problem of hiding mainly affects poor women with fewer economic resources as women in a better social position would have resorted to the activity known as "abortion tourism", meaning they travel to other countries to practice the induced abortion.〔(Francisca García Gallego, La práctica del aborto en España, Página Abierta, 194, julio de 2008 ), Francisca García Gallego es ginecóloga y miembro de ACAI (Asociación de Clínicas Acreditadas para la Interrupción del Embarazo).〕 Considering the point of view presented as being against abortion, the arguments offered for banning it include that it is a criminal and murderous practice. In any case, both the supporters of legalization, as its detractors put the bulk of their argument in defense of life, firstly in the life of the mother, secondly in the life of the unborn child. In both cases, virtually all the Spanish people interviewed, have been in favor of more social awareness on abortion and the need for government to regulate its intervention.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Abortion in Spain」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
