Abortion

In May 2008 in the abortion amendments to the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill (now Act), Adam Holloway voted for the abortion time limit to be lowered to 12 weeks against scientific and medical consensus which is currently 24 weeks[1]. After four separate parliamentary votes on varying time limits, the majority of MPs voted to keep the abortion time limit at 24 weeks, in keeping with scientific and medical consensus, hence no abortion amendments were added to the bill.

Homeopathy

Adam Holloway signed the March 2007 Early Day Motion 1240 calling for the positive recognition of NHS homeopathic hospitals[2].

Cornerstone Group

Adam Holloway is a member of the Cornerstone Group, a group within the Conservative Party that describes itself as believing in "the spiritual values which have informed British institutions, our culture and our nation's sense of identity for centuries, underpinned by the belief in a strong nation state."[3]. Their website includes articles on Conservative and Christian political issues.
