The Andrea Association has announced today, through a press note,
that will appeal the fine of 3,005 euros imposed by the provincial
Government of Nafarroa for distributing the post-coital pill during
the last celebrations of San Fermín and announced that,
in any case, "it is not going to pay it by lack of resources
and for considering it an injustice".
In his note, Andrea remembers that the distribution for free
of the pill took place on holidays when planning centers (where
habitually they are distributed) were closed. According to them
they “did not make but fulfill the parliamentary mandate,
approved by majority on the gratuity of the post-coital pill in
the Navarre public health and with the supervision of gynecologists".
"In Navarre a situation of discrimination is happening and
once again Navarrese women are deprived of reproductive rights".
The group considered the fine like "the last straw".
For that reason they announce that they will appeal the sanction
and that they will not pay it, and called to demonstrate on 28th
May against this injustice.
