To the Editor: We now know the outcome of the parliamentary vote on mifepristone (RU-486), which restored responsibility for its use to the Therapeutic Goods Association (TGA). Politicians from both houses used their conscience votes to support the scientific scrutiny of medical abortion. van Gend will now be worried about Australian women “demanding” abortions.1
