Amendment wording

Tabled by JeanPaul Garraud, Christine Anderson

8. Removed: Condemns the fact that, in some Member States, abortion is being denied by medical practitioners, and in some cases by entire medical institutions, on the basis of the ‘conscience’ clause; deplores the fact that this clause is often used in situations where any delay endangers the patient’s life or health; Added: Recalls that Article 10 of the Charter enshrines the right to conscientious objection; stresses, therefore, the law should never coerce or pressure health professionals to act in a way that contradicts their own medical ethics;
