Elkarrekin Podemos-IU registered this Friday for his debate in the Basque Parliament de Proposed Sexual and Reproductive Rights Act that increases reimbursable menstrual licenses in government services and “blocks” by law the right to sex education at all levels of education.
The coalition’s spokeswoman and parliamentarian, Miren Gorrotxategi and Isabel González, explained that the menstrual license proposal “is in line” with the measures in the draft bill on abortion approved by the Spanish government, in which it shields this right and other sexual and women’s reproductive rights, including temporary disabilities as a result of painful rules paid for by social security from day one.
Elkarrekin Podemos-IU proposes that the Basque governments have the right to a menstruation of eight hours a month recoverable within three months.
To access this permit, women must submit an accredited application with a medical report specifying this need. The text contains the impetus to transfer this possibility to the private sphere as well.
In addition, the proposal argues in favor of guaranteeing free and accessibility of menstrual hygiene products for all women and for this purpose, it proposes to provide dispensers in schools, health centers, universities, workshops, public centers, sports facilities, libraries and other places.
The initiative contains several articles related to the Voluntary termination of pregnancy in which it stipulates Osakidetza’s obligation to prepare a plan for the “progressive publication” of the coordinated private centers authorized to exercise them.
It includes the conscientious objection right of doctors who refuse to perform abortions in the public network and states that they will not be able to participate in pregnancy terminations in private hospitals.
In the educational fieldSuggests that the law “screen off” guaranteeing the right to “comprehensive” sex education within formal education, as he believes that “current programs do not guarantee sex education at all levels of education”, which is “much wrong information”.
Likewise, the text proposes the creation of centers for attention to sexual and reproductive health, as well as the Basque Observatory of Sexual and Reproductive Rights, the promotion of home birth care programs, attention to pregnancy and perinatal grief and the explicit recognition of gynecological-obstetric violence , among other novelties.
