Amendment wording

Tabled by Vlad Vasile-Voiculescu

Added: (12 a) Contraceptives and abortifacient medicinal products are essential in safeguarding sexual and reproductive health rights, gender equality and the full enjoyment of fundamental rights everywhere in the Union. Shortages and supply disruptions affecting these medicinal products of common interest undermine patient safety and contribute to unequal access to healthcare across the Union. In order to safeguard sexual and reproductive health rights and equal access to contraceptive and abortifacient medicinal products for all women in the Union, Member States should ensure availability, affordability and security of supply of these medicinal products of common interest.
