^^ Perhaps this is just baby brain but none of that made any sense to me. What I gather is that homebirthing midwives currently attend homebirths without insurance and under the new laws this will be illegal. So I don't see how this can NOT be about choice? Since it will remove the choice to have a homebirth??

This is just bizarre. In WA homebirths are government funded for crying out loud, now they're going to be illegal?! I wish so passionately I could afford to go to Canberra for this, hopefully we can organise a protest in WA and other states for those who can't go to Canberra.
