In June 2022 Poland’s parliament has rejected a bill that would have liberalised the country’s abortion law – which is one of the strictest in Europe – by allowing terminations on demand up to 12 weeks of pregnancy. A majority of 265 MPs in the 460-seat Sejm voted to reject the legislation. That included almost all members of the ruling national-conservative Law and Justice (PiS) party’s caucus, as well as the centre-right Polish Coalition (KP) and far-right Confederation (Konfederacja), both of which are in opposition. Under Polish law, a woman who has terminated her own pregnancy is not liable for prosecution, but abortion rights campaigners say the recent reports of harassment highlight the consequences of criminalising abortion.

Neutral, the government is justified to enforce policies that stagnate population growth.
