  • Title: Regina v. Salford Health Authority, Ex Parte Janaway, 12 February 1987.
    Author: United Kingdom. High Court. Queen's Bench Division.
    Journal: Annu Rev Popul Law; 1987; 14():41. PubMed ID: 12346723.
    Abstract:
    The applicant was a receptionist for a health centre who refused to type letters for physicians referring patients for abortions. She challenged her dismissal by the health centre, arguing that she was legally authorized to refuse to type abortion referral letters by Section 4(1) of the Abortion Act 1967, which provides that no person may be required to "participate in any treatment authorized by this Act to which he has a conscientious objection." The Court rejected her argument, holding that the treatment to which the Act referred was medical treatment related to abortion and that she had no part in such treatment.
