Baby Safe Havens
To the Honourable President and Members of the Senate in Parliament assembled:
The petition of the undersigned draws to the attention of the Senate a need for legislation to be enacted to provide legal abandonment of newborn babies.
Your Petitioners therefore request that the Senate call on the States to consider enacting legislation so that young women would be discouraged from killing, causing physical harm or abandoning their babies if the Commonwealth provided "Baby Safe Havens" where the mothers would remain anonymous and immune from prosecution. It is the intention of the undersigned that this legislation will prevent any further tragic loss of infant life through abandonment.
by Senator Polley (from 768 citizens)
