Abortions that take place later in pregnancy are a constant point of controversy in policy and law reform debates. Efforts to alter abortion time limits accordingly feature amongst the most challenging questions in this area. This paper consider the merits of key positions within the debates on such time limits. It is argued that we should be concerned about provision of care in this context but not for the reasons that often dominant the law reform advocacy space. The paper considers the context for provision of care with a focus on Great Britain; primarily England and Wales. A number of specific areas of legal ambiguity are identified, including the possibility of live birth following termination, the role for coronial involvement, safeguarding, travel to access care in other jurisdictions, and denial of care. The overall argument is that there are shortcomings in the current legal framework and gaps in provision of care. This is something we should be mindful of in efforts to reform the law.
