Talk:Abortion Legislation Act 2020

Red links

Andykatib, every MP that we've ever had in New Zealand has an article. So if you've got red links in your list then you've got the spelling wrong. Schwede66 10:28, 8 August 2019 (UTC)

• Hi Schwede66, thanks. Will check them out and repair the redlinks. Will also need help with the template because there was a third category of absent MPs. I don't know how to fix that one. Andykatib 10:48, 8 August 2019 (UTC)

• @Andykatib: Do you still need help? There are now three categories. The third category shows as abstained, but I would say that being absent is something different. Wouldn't "Absent" be the better heading? Schwede66 19:46, 8 August 2019 (UTC)

Looks like someone has fixed the box. I think "Absent" will be a better heading than "Abstained" because they were simply not present and did not formally abstain. Andykatib 22:01, 8 August 2019 (UTC)

No longer a Bill. Received Royal assent.

This bill is now officially a law, having received royal assent. So this article needs to change to reflect that. Gorillainacoupe (talk) 01:20, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

Thanks, Gorillainacoupe. I've moved (renamed) the article. Feel free to now edit it and make the appropriate changes. Schwede66 05:07, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

The page name needs to have "2019" changed to "2020" and the infobox needs to be sorted out and I seem to be unable to do that for some reason.Gorillainacoupe (talk) 07:42, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

It did say “2019” in the legislation, though, which surprised me. Legal isn’t my area of expertise and I went with what I found. Schwede66 14:52, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

Hazhk, can you please point us to where in the act it says 2020? All I can find is this. Schwede66 19:57, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

In the parliament link shown if you scroll to the bottom it says Act: Abortion Legislation Act 2020. It makes sense as the act has only become law in 2020 Gorillainacoupe (talk) 23:30, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

Also "Status:" needs to be changed to "Current Legislation" but I couldn't do that for some reasonGorillainacoupe (talk) 23:32, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

Certainly my understanding was that it would be named "Abortion Legislation Act 2020" if only because it became an Act in 2020. --Hazhk (talk) 07:30, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

Party's stances on embrassing new abortion law

I wanted to find out what was the position of TOP party but I was not able to find any concrete position. I read elsewhere that TOP didn't take clarified position and took the this more as conscience subject but I had a feeling Party's community/background was more pro-choice, and I'm not concerned that's something proved. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.182.194.74 (talk) 22:06, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
