MHK pushes reform a year on
Changes to the Island's laws on abortion will be debated in the House of Keys this month - a year since they were touted there.
Dr Alex Allinson is bringing forward a bill which would legalise terminations up to 14 weeks into a pregnancy.
It follows months of campaigning from both sides of the debate, as well as a public consultation attracting more than 3,500 responses.
The Ramsey MHK says he would prefer the issue to be debated by politicians than be further delayed by a parliamentary committee, though.
He says it's been in the works long enough:
New Year Honours for six Isle of Man residents
Island enjoyed 'reasonable' summer despite no record-breaking temperatures
Head of Ambulance Service 'really privileged' to receive New Year Honour
Chief Fire Officer 'overwhelmed' after receiving New Year Honour
