Britpick Super Quick Question?

[amberfocus]

HonorH has promised me Nine/Rose smut if I post the next chapter of Doubt within 24 hours.  So, I need a quick answer on British abortion laws.  Do you have any kind of waiting period before a woman can get an abortion?  Does the law require any kind of counseling first?  Is it done at private clinics or hospitals or what?  What's the state run health thingy called?  NIH?  Can't remember.  How's it work?  Especially if you don't have money?  Or is it all state sponsered?

Now I will state flat out that Rose is not going to get an abortion, as I'm sure you already all are suspecting that I wouldn't do that to her, but at this moment she thinks she is.  Help please.

lostwolfchats did a good job there. i can add a little about the NHS as a service though.

Until a few months ago the NHS was fully government paid. For some operations now though you can pay the fee and jump the waiting lists (which are horrendously long for standard, I’m not sure about abortions), it would cost about £500. if it’s further than 14 weeks into the pregnancy she’d be less likely to get an abortion on the NHS. Private healthcare that can be assisted by charity funding would come into play then


...but i'm very glad that you're not planning on giving her an abortions
