A new battleground has opened over the introduction of 鈥渇oetal personhood鈥 laws as the anti-choice lobby tries to use these laws to roll back women鈥檚 reproductive rights. A private member鈥檚 bill giving legal rights to foetuses older than 20 weeks or weighing more than 400 grams passed the New South Wales lower house on November 21 by a large margin. A similar bill was introduced in the South Australian Legislative Council on November 27 by right-wing Christian party Family First. It lost by one vote. The Western Australian parliament considered a 鈥渇oetal homicide鈥 law last year.
