| 520 | |a In 2017, the BMA passed policy supporting the decriminalisation of abortion throughout the UK.1 The policy states that abortion should be regulated in the same way as other medical treatments and that abortion should be decriminalised in respect of health professionals administering abortions within the context of their clinical practice and women procuring or administering the means of their own abortion.The BMA has been clear that decriminalisation does not mean deregulation.

This is the first time that the organisation will carry out such a poll.The organisation currently opposes assisted dying in all its forms, policy that was passed at the 2006 ARM and reaffirmed in 2016.2 This policy will stand while the poll is being conducted and until a decision is made to the contrary. Information obtained from the poll will inform future debate on the BMA’s policy.The decision of the BMA comes shortly after an announcement that the Royal College of General Practitioners will poll its members later this year3 and a few months after the Royal College of Physicians announced the results of a survey of members’ views on this issue.4 Maine has become the latest state to legalise assisted suicide in the USA, when its governor, Janet Mills, signed the Dignity in Dying Act … | ||
