This country has a proud history of allowing free speech, but the right to peaceful protest does not extend to harassment or intimidating behaviour and the law currently provides protection against such acts.</p><p>The Home Office takes the matter of protesters outside abortion clinics extremely seriously. The Government recognises the adverse impact that anti-abortion protests can have on patients and staff, and the Home Office is keeping this important matter under review.</p><p>My officials regularly liaise with national policing leads to assess if there have been any developments on protest activities outside abortion clinics. The Home Office would welcome any new evidence that becomes available on this important issue.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 03/03/2020 16:35:12 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse
