Bishope Devine call to oppose hybrids bill

Briefing.

From SPUC: The Catholic bishop of Motherwell, Scotland, has written to all his
parishes calling for active opposition to the UK government's Human Fertilisation and Embryology bill. Rt Rev Joseph Devine emphasised that the procedures proposed by the bill are medically unnecessary as well as attacks on human life. He writes: "The Government hope that the majority of the public remain indifferent to these issues... If few people speak out it will be presumed that most people are happy enough with what is being proposed."
