A bill to improve access to abortions in regional New South Wales has been approved in the state's Parliament, amid passionate debate. The legislation, tabled by Greens MP Amanda Cohn, was introduced after revelations a woman was turned away from having an abortion on the day of her planned procedure at Queanbeyan Hospital in August 2024.
