Queensland parliament passes unprecedented' gag on abortion debate
Briefly

The Queensland parliament has been banned from debating abortion for four years after the premier’s unprecedented ambush motion, raising concerns over the treatment of serious issues.
Crisafulli labeled the 2018 abortion legislation a part of a 'disgraceful US-style scare campaign,' asserting it was never the LNP's plan to change it.
Opposition leader, Steven Miles, criticized the lack of notice and discussion on the motion, describing it as 'extraordinary' and 'grubby treatment of a serious issue.'
Labor MPs expressed that the motion obstructs further legislative protections for abortion services, highlighting the important impact of parliamentary decisions on women's access to health care.
