Media Release 25 January 2026 Right to Life requests that the Ministry of Health cease threatening doctors with prison or a fine of up to $20,000 dollars, if they dared to save the life of an unborn baby from abortion, using the prohibited Abortion Pill Reversal protocol. The Ministry has banned Progesterone being prescribed as the Abortion Pill Reversal protocol, and refuses to accept that the birth of more than 7,000 babies internationally from stopped medical abortions is

Media Release 19 January 2026 Right to Life is concerned at the deafening silence of the daily newspapers in New Zealand refusing to publish any information on the Ministry of Health’s annual report on abortion statistics for 2024, released on 10th December 2025. Right to Life asks: Are pilot whales of greater value than unborn children? Recently all daily newspapers gave extensive coverage to the stranding of 55 pilot whales, the heroic efforts of hundreds of volunteers who

Media Release 14 January 2026   More human beings died from abortions in New Zealand in 2024 than from  any other cause of death.   Right to Life is appalled that death by abortion is the major cause of death in New Zealand. In 2024 there were a total of 37,782 recorded deaths in New Zealand. The number of  deaths caused by abortion in 2024 totalled 17,785. Nearly one in five healthy children in normal pregnancies are murdered before they are born, a grievous offence to God t

Media Release 7 January 2026 The Wildlife Act 1953 provide absolute protection for the lives of lizards and their unborn. Right to Life asks: "why then does the government uphold the Abortion Legislation Act 2020, which allows the killing of unborn children effectively for any reason up to birth”? All native lizards (skinks and geckos) are "absolutely protected" under the Wildlife Act 1953. For an individual, the maximum penalty for hunting or killing protected wildlife is:

Media Release 4 January 2026 Right to Life opposes the proposition that men can choose to be women, and denies that the definition for a woman is an adult female human being. Right to Life upholds the truth of the statement in the book of Genesis in The Bible: “And God created man to his own image: to the image of God he created him: male and female he created them.” A Sydney Local District Court in December 2025 has fined Kirralie Smith (pictured) $95,000 and required her

Media Release 28 December 2025 The murder of all the male children under two in Bethlehem on the orders of King Herod is a stark reminder that the murder of innocent children continues today. For more than 500 years the Catholic Church has commemorated the murder and martyrdom of the Holy Innocents, who were killed by an enraged King Herod, in a futile attempt to kill Christ the King, whom he saw as a threat to his reign. King Herod the tyrant is dead, but the culture of dea

Media Release 19 December 2025 The Ministry of Health reveals in its report on abortion statistics for 2024 that 11,392 unborn children were killed in their mother’s womb in early medical abortions during the first 10 weeks of their life; this is 67% of the 17,785 abortions reported in 2024. Right to Life weeps with God for His precious infants lost and for their precious mothers grievously wounded. Right to Life is appalled that the government has now pressured the noble pro

Media Release 15 December 2025 The Ministry of Health released the Abortion Services NZ Annual Report 2025, detailing New Zealand’s abortion statistics for the 2024 year – and it’s even worse than we imagined! - 17,785 abortions were performed in 2024 (an increase from the year before, of nearly 10% on the 16,277 abortions reported in 2023) - 164 of those abortions happened at OVER 20 weeks’ gestation (an increase from the year before) - 389 abortions resulted in compli
