Petition baby safe haven law

More details

To put a law in place that ensures that mothers are able to hand over unwanted babies to authorities (hospitals, fire stations and police stations) with no questions asked.
This Law would see that mothers suffering from PND, young mothers that have no means to care for their baby or other significant circumstances, so that they have somewhere to take their baby so that it can be looked after.
This Law would see a decrease in babies being found dead or abandoned and I strongly believe could save many babies from harm as well as mothers causing harm or abandoning their child anywhere.
