If we were able to get this happening the women will have no cost access to a midwife as the primary care giver in the place of birth that suits the woman. The professional indemnity insurance could be covered in a similar way to here in WA and then we will really start to make change here in Australia!!   How active are people being in understanding what the NMAP is all about? Promoting it to clients, activists, colleagues? Lets get behind NMAP and push!   In peace and joy   Sally Westbury
