Comment
on Health para:
Bad
1. Too much mention of rights , wrongs should
never become rights.
2.
New term – comprehensive sexual and reproductive health care services.
3.
Mentions of Cairo and Beijing conference was to programme of action , should
have been to the Report , as this includes reservations
4.
In a roundabout way promotes comprehensive sexuality education , lessons in
sexual immorality and depravity.
Good.
1.
Rights referenced to Cairo with protective wording
on abortion – national law and not a right.
2.
No
mention of Sexual & reproductive health & rights
3.
Mention
of obstetric fistula , etc.
