Current law states that if a girl below the age of 16 has an abortion, there is no requirement for medical professionals to inform either the girl’s parents or the authorities.

This has been exploited by grooming gangs who made it easier to cover up the abuse.

Sir Edward Leigh and Miriam Cates have called for a change in the law to require parents to be informed.
