Act on Assistance for Women in Special Pregnancy Termination Cases
Pursuant to this Act, a woman is entitled to benefits if it would be unacceptable to demand that she provides the funds for her own termination of pregnancy and when her habitual domicile or place of residence is in the territory covered by the Act. Section 10a subs. 3 sentence 4 of the Asylum Seekers’ Benefits Act (Asylbewerberleistungsgesetz) applies mutatis mutandis to women who are entitled to benefits pursuant to the Asylum Seekers’ Benefits Act.
The 12th Ordinance for the Reform of Contributions pursuant to section 7 subs. 1 of the Act on Assistance for Women in Special Pregnancy Termination Cases of 24 July 2007 contains provisions on the amount of cost to be paid from a person’s disposable income in cases in which a woman cannot be expected to provide the funding for termination of pregnancy as defined in the Act.
