Abortion in Brunant

Abortion in Brunant is legally recognized from 8 May 1989, with some restrictions, though subsequent amendments have reduced them.

History
Brunant in the 1960s and 1970s was a very religiously-influenced country, and there were no serious attempt to or movement for reforming the law.

Illegal abortions entered the national spotlight in the 1960s, and in October 1963, the De Vries government passed law 23/1963, which formally codified abortions as illegal, and any medical professional or person otherwise would serve up to ten years in prison for doing so. In 1969 it is believed that 24 women died from abortion-related causes, and in 1974 over 50 are likely to have died as well.
