"I think it's very serious, it should be easy for women in crisis to talk to a student."
Siv Dagny Aasvik (a), mayor of Hadsel and leader of the Nordland Labor Women's Network, told NRK this week. In the current context, health sector companies are on the verge of reducing the number of abortions, which will lengthen the travel of many women when they need to talk about abortion to perform an abortion after the 12th week of pregnancy.
Of course, Aasvik says that it is about a vulnerable group and that these women must have good access to professional services when they make a difficult choice. At the same time, it is important to remember that the reduction in the number of abortions is not a sudden and unjustified impact of the page of the Minister of Health, Høies (H).
On the contrary, the desire to reduce the number of students is well founded.
In 2012, Jonas Gahr Støre (A) was Minister of Health of the Stoltenberg II government. Støre commissioned the Health Directorate to create a group of independent experts composed of doctors, lawyers and midwives from across the country. This group of experts should review the regulations and practices regarding late abortions. The group of experts published a report indicating possible infringements and major differences in treatment between the various committees.
In some cases, the board did not meet the woman until the decision was made. In other cases, the woman did not have access to an interpreter or persons from her family or entourage were used as interpreters. Some women met with members individually, others found that the committee had not announced its decision.
The committee highlighted the challenges especially in tips that deal with few problems, and therefore recommended to reduce the number of students.
When Aasvik now calls the reduction in the number of students "unfair treatment for women in the districts" and says that "the Minister of Health makes the situation more difficult for many", so it is a truth with major modifications.
The purpose of this work is not to weaken women's rights, but rather strength the rights of women and fetuses by ensuring the quality of the decisions made. This is an undeniable advantage.
The fact that the journey is longer is obviously a disadvantage. This trip, however, will not happen in the woman's life, probably only once. It is clear, therefore, that the quality of treatment must weigh more heavily than short trips.
The opposite can rightly be called "unfair treatment of women in the districts".
