Abstract
A woman has the right to have an abortion without declaring any reason for it until the eighteenth week of the pregnancy. After that, abortion can be allowed upon application to the Legal Council of the National Board of Health and Welfare. The number of abortions allowed for social reasons has been stable until 2020, when an increase of refusals occurred. The increase coincided with changes in meeting routines for the council. The procedure for handling requests for abortion is problematic. Opportunities for the members of the council to discuss are scarce. No reasons for denial of abortion are communicated and there are no minutes from the meetings.
