Policy on the Rights of the Unborn Child.
Just a personal note: There have a number of cases where an expectant mother has had a still birth due to a trauma inflicted upon her by accident or intentionally and the grief that the mother, and sometimes the father, is not dealt with at law. Because The State, in a legal way, claims that the now dead baby was not a person and so no charges can be brought before the court in regard to the circumstances of the baby’s death.
This is repugnant to me and justice is not served. The baby has rights and I will fight for them.
Policy briefs:
I shall push for;
Declaring that Life begins at conception and the all life is required to be protected at law.
All human life (that is from conception) will be legally a human person and be protected at law.
Family planning will give options of keeping a child and putting a child up for adoption, or assistance in temporary foster care to assist families where a child is arriving at a difficult time for the family with the view that the child may be able to be returned to the family at a future time.
Adoption laws will be changed to make it easier for Australian born babies to be adopted by Australian families.
Upholding the UNs declaration of the rights of the unborn child and therefore disallowing any state law that contravenes this declaration.
Abortions will be illegal except in the case of a medical emergency where the life of the mother and child are at real risk then the mother’s life should be saved and while and if the baby cannot be saved as well then this will not be a homicide.
The supply of medication or any substance that will cause the termination of a pregnancy will be an offence against the unborn child.
The crime of murder or manslaughter will apply when an assault on a pregnant woman results in the death of the unborn child.
Unlawful assault charges will need to be answered if an unborn child is hurt as a result of an assault on a pregnant woman.
