News, 1 February 2000
The number of women having abortions in Scotland has multiplied eight-fold since the procedure was made legal, according to the National Health Service's information and statistics division. In 1998 there were 12,424 terminations, 446 (3.6%) more than two years before. In the same year nearly seven percent of teenage girls in the city of Dundee became pregnant. Catholic sources are quoted as saying that abortion was now available on demand and population-control was being effected by "wholesale termination".
