The Greens party has now promised free contraceptives for women to remove “financial barriers to reproductive health.”

“We are in a cost-of-living crisis, and in the face of financial stress and gender inequality, the Greens will take to the election a commitment to provide women with free access to contraceptives,” said Senator Larissa Waters, Greens spokesperson on women.
