The SNP's commitment to enshrining "the right to abortion" in the constitution of an independent Scotland is "deeply disturbing", a pro-life group has said.
The commitment was contained within a resolution proposed by the party's Elgin branch. It was passed by a show of hands at the SNP's National Conference on Sunday. The SNP's website states that when resolutions are adopted, they become SNP policy and "can be taken forward in government or championed at Westminster".
The resolution states that should Scotland become independent, the "right to abortion" would be written into its constitution. CT.
