This means that indications for legal termination of pregnancy include threat to life and health of the mother, pregnancy resulting from criminal activity, and congenital disorder of the fetus. Social indications will no longer be consistent with the law.

The responsibility for the details of the curriculum will rest with the Minister of Education.  The Law requires the President's signature before its contents can be implemented.
