Baroness Kennedy of The Shaws (Lab)
I am perfectly happy to say that some innocent dupes are used by some of the organisations funded in this way.
This organisation claims that its tireless work helped the United States Supreme Court overturn Roe v Wade, which guaranteed the right to abortion. The ADF has supported controversial anti-abortion activity in this country, including supporting and funding protesters outside clinics. We are seeing the ramping up of spending to bring US-style abortion politics into our country.
Baroness Lawlor (Con)
May I ask the noble Baroness what precisely this has to do with a Bill proposing a committee of research and analysis?
