HL Deb 04 November 1996 vol 575 c40WA
Lord Braine of Wheatley

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether where a live child's head slips out of the mother in a partial birth abortion, then to proceed with the abortion would be to commit infanticide.

Baroness Cumberlege

We are not aware of "partial birth abortion" being used in the United Kingdom.
